Process

Interviewed over the phone.

Simple problem in Google Docs.

Queue timestamps.

The interviewer seemed uninterested and gave the instructions incorrectly at first. They told me I made a mistake but were not paying attention to my work and then realized it was fine.

Questions

Design a system for managing timestamps. The system retrieves the nearest timestamp to a query and removes the oldest timestamp after the queue surpasses a particular size.
