Software Engineer Interview Experience - United Kingdom
Process
The interviewer got the time wrong and called me while I was asleep, asking me to join the virtual interview. Subsequently, they seemed unbothered during the interview and repeatedly asked me to repeat myself at the end of each explanation.
Questions
The question was fairly tough if you haven't done it before: to find all palindromic substrings in a string. They didn't care too much about efficiency, as long as it wasn't above polynomial complexity.
