Process
Interviewers visited the campus and gave a technical question without personal questions.
Even he didn't ask anything about my resume information. I'm not sure whether he would have if I had been able to solve the basic technical question well.
Questions
I wasn't prepared at that time, but it was a well-known question:
"You have an array of stock prices, ordered by time. What is the maximum profit from the given time period? You cannot sell first and then buy later."
