I was asked to start with an overview of my past experience. This was a technical interview, so the next step was a coding challenge followed by some questions about how the implemented algorithm could be extended.

I performed reasonably, not spectacularly. To be honest, I did not expect to be ghosted by such a large tech company, but that's what happened.

I followed up after six days with their internal recruiter. I received no apology, but only the briefest of messages stating they would ask around about it.

Sixteen days later, I asked to at least confirm that I was rejected. The response again had no apology but just stated they were waiting to hear back from the other people.

That was two months ago. I don't mind failing the interview but was a bit gobsmacked at the lack of professionalism from such a major player.

A reasonably straightforward algorithm question about finding some information about items in a list.

Follow-on questions consider the situation where the list is partitioned into sublists.
