Process

Gave resume at uni career fair and got a call.

Why use HashMap and delve deeper into its implementation: collisions, basic understanding. Not required to code this.

Phone: Collaborative coding. You need to explain the algorithm you write.

  1. Stack and Heap
  2. Abstract Class and Interface
  3. Validate a BST

Few more questions which are basic, but I don't remember them, sorry! You should be able to find most of them on Glassdoor already.
