Process
A colleague recommended me for the role, so the initial call felt more like a conversation.
The process moved quickly, with a technical round and a behavioral interview in about two and a half weeks.
During the coding portion, I was asked to:
- Find the first non-repeating character in a string
- Validate a set of parentheses
Halfway through the coding round, I realized I had just practiced a similar problem on PracHub.
Overall, a straightforward experience, and I happily accepted the offer.
Questions
Find the first non-repeating character in a string.
Validate whether a string of parentheses is properly balanced.
