Interview Process
The interview process took approximately 4 hours and was divided into multiple rounds including coding, system design, and behavioral questions.
For the coding part, I had to solve two problems related to data structures and algorithms. The first problem was about implementing a binary search tree with specific operations. The second one was related to dynamic programming where I had to calculate the maximum profit from stock prices over a period of time.
The system design phase involved designing a scalable system for a hypothetical health data application, with a focus on data privacy and security. I discussed various design patterns and approaches I would consider.
Finally, the behavioral questions centered around teamwork and past experiences, including how I dealt with conflicts in the workplace and my approach to collaboration on projects. Overall, the interview atmosphere was friendly yet challenging, and I felt that my technical skills were tested thoroughly.
