Software Development Engineer In Test (SDET) Interview Experience - Seattle, Washington
Process
I was interviewed on campus for the first round. I was asked two technical questions.
One was about binary trees which have no child pointers; instead, children point to the parent. The other was, given two strings, to find whether they are anagrams of each other or not.
Questions
Find the path in a binary tree from root to leaf where the sum of node values equals a given number.
