Process
The process was fast. I received the coding challenge email the next day after applying for the position. It contained multiple sections, but you needed to select your best two programming languages. There were coding questions as well as multiple-choice questions (fundamentals or output-based).
The next round was telephonic. It included questions like "top view of a Binary Tree" and "k-node from the end in one pass." There were other questions as well, such as "What will be the output of this code?"
Questions
