Process
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks.
- Recruiter call
- Technical phone interview: The question was a variation of the 3Sum LeetCode question. I was able to solve it, but I still didn't pass. People say they expect you to solve 2 LeetCode questions, and since I only solved 1, I think that was the reason for my rejection.
Questions
There was a 3Sum variation LeetCode-style question.
