Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

I had applied online, and I was very excited when I first received the email stating they had found a match for the software engineer intern position. I passed the first round, which was a string matching question, but I couldn't make it to the second round. The interviewer gave me a rather difficult problem since I had applied online: finding a duplicate folder and specifying its root.

Questions

Finding the duplicate files within the same root folder.
