I was surprised to receive a rejection letter the next day, as my background seemed to match their needs and I felt I answered the questions adequately. I realized I didn’t clearly explain my choice of data structure during the interview. It seems that the expectations were higher, and I need to ensure my code is perfect and aligns with the interviewer’s expectations.
