Interview Process
The interview began with a coding problem titled “Robot Grid Distance Challenge,” which involved designing an efficient algorithm to calculate the shortest path for a robot navigating through a grid. This required a solid understanding of graph theory and dynamic programming. I was asked to explain my thought process and discuss potential edge cases. After the coding problem, the interviewer shifted to behavioral questions, focusing on my teamwork and project management experiences. I shared insights from my previous projects and how I addressed challenges within teams. The interview concluded with a discussion about the company’s culture and the team I might join.
