Hackerrank initial screening + 3 DSA interviews (Leetcode medium-hard), no sys design.

The second DSA interview gave me the same question as the first interviewer. I guess I was an honest fool because I mentioned this, and he switched to a difficult DP problem with a big grin (sorry for being fair, I guess).

I did not make it. The feedback was late and very lackluster. Google works through external companies for hiring but handles interviews in-house, much like Microsoft and others. I rather prefer the Karat interviewers; just outsource fully and let professionals give real interviews, not memorization games that are easy to cheat.

LeetCode problems that you had to memorize and figure out.
