I applied for the position at a career fair at my university. A couple of months later, I received an email from a recruiter to set up an interview. I scheduled the interview for a month later. I had two phone interviews where questions were about my background, coding, and algorithms. I thought I did well in the interviews, but a week after, I got an email from the recruiter stating I didn't get the position.
I thought all the algorithms questions were easy and basic. The coding questions, on the other hand, specifically one of them, were not that clear and straightforward. I mostly blame the fact that the interviewer couldn't define the problem in a clear or proper manner.
He then tried to explain the question via an example, but his example was also confusing.
