Process

I applied online. The process took 4 months.

Two consecutive 45-minute sessions in a row, separated by a 15-minute break. Both sessions asked a LeetCode style question. The algorithmic one started with a greedy algorithm, then advanced to a binary search. The data structure one was about graphs, trees, traversal, and connectivity.

Questions

They gave me:

  • One algorithmic question
  • One data structure question
