Process
The interviewer was very calm and friendly.
It was an initial interview. She encouraged me to take my time to think and answer.
Two questions were asked, and the interviewer ran her sample test cases to check the code once I was ready.
Questions
String compression: I was asked to print the number of times a particular character appeared in a string. For example: aabbbcc = a2b3c2.
