Process
I first received an OA, and the difficulty was okay, around LeetCode medium level. It included one binary search question, one DP question, and one easy SQL question.
Following the OA, I was scheduled for an HR call, and then a technical interview. However, the technical interview was cancelled on the same day, with the reason given being that the position was filled.
Questions
