Process

Codility phone screen test.

Included questions on the number of good nodes and CS fundamentals.

Interviewed for a hiring event. The experience was very rushed and disorganized. I did not have enough time to solve the problems, and the interviewers joined late.

  2. Depth of binary tree.
  3. 2D matrix search variation.
