I had two phone interviews.

One was with a software engineer. We discussed my previous experiences and resume, talked about a couple of classes I have taken, and then answered a few technical questions.

The second phone call was with the Team Manager. She was super nice, and we had an awesome conversation. We chatted about my personal projects, her personal projects, the Salesforce team, and a few other light topics. Nothing technical came up.

A couple of simple questions about Binary Search Trees:

• Creating a sorted list by extracting the minimum element n times. This had two approaches:

  • An iterative approach
  • A recursive approach

• Counting the frequency of words in a list, using a hash table with word keys and word count values.

Asked a bit about best coding practices, such as readability and safety from bugs.
