Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

I reached out to the CEO, who then reached out to the VP of Engineering. The VP then set up a code-pair video interview with one of the employees.

The question was interesting. Initially, I went off in a wrong direction, but I managed to solve it finally. The interviewer didn't seem very impressed. I didn't make it to the next round.

Questions

Given a long string and a dictionary of accepted words, find if the string can be broken completely into a set of words given in the dictionary. This set should also be minimum, if multiple such sets exist.
