Interview Process

The interview consisted of two main parts: a coding challenge and behavioral questions. The coding challenge was based on a LeetCode problem regarding tree traversal, where I was asked to implement both iterative and recursive solutions. After solving the coding problem, the interviewer shifted focus to behavioral questions aimed at assessing my fit within the team and company culture. Questions included scenarios about past teamwork experiences and conflict resolution. Overall, the interview lasted about 45 minutes.
