Process

I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks.- First was an online assessment. Two problems were around LeetCode medium, and one was LeetCode easy.- Second round was a live interview where it was a mixture of system design and one hard-level DSA.

Questions

  • Easy DSA: Merge two sorted arrays.
  • Difficults: Trees & Matrix.
