Process

I only got through the first stage.

After a going back and forth with a recruiter, I scheduled two technical interviews for one day.

The interviews were with different interviewers and back-to-back.

Questions

I was given a tree where the nodes represented the time taken to reach them from the root. One question I was asked was how to find the time taken to get to a specific node. There were other, more difficult questions as well.

Was this helpful?
