Software Development Engineer (SDE) Interview Experience - Mumbai, Maharashtra
Process
They visited my college for a placement drive. I passed the OA round, which involved solving 4 DSA problems in 90 minutes.
The interview rounds were conducted the very next day. In my first round, I was asked questions on a binary space search problem and a binary lifting problem. I provided brute-force solutions for each, and a bit-optimized solution for the binary space search one, but I couldn't meet their expectations.
Questions
