Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Very clear interview process, a great recruiting team, and a cool company.

However, the work isn't special, but the interviewers have a high standard for some reason. Any basic tenured dev can do the work, lol.

Apparently, they're looking for "cream of the crop."

Questions

Basic Software Design Question: Explain building a web API, and then some follow-ups.

Coding Interview: Merge two arrays and sort them based on their squared value: [1,3,7] and [4,10,11]. Simple solution with two pointers.

Remove duplicates in a string.

Some behavioral questions.
