Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - Mountain View, California
Process
The interview was quite technical, and they don't seem to prioritize previous experience.
They use a slip that interviewers pass around to track questions already asked, thereby avoiding repetition.
While they aimed to cover various technical aspects, I encountered three interviewers who focused on algorithm design for given problems and discussions on Big O efficiency.
Questions
Given a list of iterators, write a wrapper iterator that can iterate through all the iterators in the list.
