Interview Process
I received the interview call after applying through the career portal. The interviewer was really friendly and started off with some general questions about my background and experiences. Then, he explained the problem - the Robot Grid Distance Challenge. He asked me to implement a solution for finding the shortest path for a robot moving on a grid. I quickly started coding and explained my thought process along the way. After submitting the solution, we had a discussion around the time and space complexity of the algorithm. The interviewer provided some scenarios to test my implementation. It felt like a relaxed conversation rather than a stressful interview, and I appreciated that.
