Process
The interview was comprised of three parts.
The first part was an online assessment where you were given the equivalent of two LeetCode mediums to solve. The total test was 45 minutes to complete both, and it was not too difficult.
Questions
The questions were both graph problems, each offering a DFS or BFS option to complete them. They were very similar, with one building off the other.
