Interview Process
The interview consisted of a technical phone screen focused on algorithm challenges. The interviewer was very friendly and started with a brief introduction about the company. I was asked to solve the Robot Grid Distance Challenge, which involved calculating the shortest distance a robot would need to travel given a grid with obstacles. I used a BFS algorithm to ensure optimal pathfinding. After presenting my solution, we discussed the time complexity, best practices for coding, and potential edge cases. The interviewer provided feedback on my thought process and code, making it a positive experience.
