Process

The process was pretty straightforward.

I applied online in late August and heard back after almost a month.

They sent me a take-home coding assignment to be completed in 3 business days.

Once submitted, I received an email stating they wanted to conduct a Skype interview.

After that, I was emailed that they were interested in having me for an on-site interview.

The on-site process involved:

  • Four rounds of interviews (1 hour each): two coding and one system design.
  • Lunch with recent hires.
  • An office tour.

Nothing was too difficult, and the interviewers were very friendly.

Questions

Implement an LRU cache with add and fetch operations, each with O(1) time complexity.

Check if a string is a palindrome, ignoring spaces.
