Process
Had a short, 40-minute on-campus interview.
The first question was a simple introduction, and then it moved into two technical questions.
These included:
- A string copy in C
- An insert for a Binary Search Tree (BST)
Questions
The hardest part, I guess, was coding on a whiteboard. There was lots of pressure!
Just practice coding on paper or a whiteboard.
