Software Engineer Interview Experience - London, England
Process
Online Codility, 1 LeetCode hard (KMP string matching algorithm) and 1 awful code commenting question for a regex parser (Python cls vs self, inheritance, itertools, etc).
Rejected at this stage. I know some people get 2 algorithm questions, so I will try again next year and hope to avoid the code commenting question.
Questions
Given two strings and a parent string, find index matches of both in the parent.
Comment very complex Python code.
