Interview Process
This was a technical phone screen with Uber where I was presented with a coding problem related to Robot Grid Distance. The interviewer was friendly and allowed me to discuss my thought process openly, which helped in clarifying the requirements of the problem. After understanding the problem, I proceeded to implement the solution. The algorithm involved calculating the minimum distance that a robot would need to travel in a grid-like environment, considering various obstacles. Throughout the interview, the interviewer asked me to explain my thought process and to optimize my code. Overall, it was a positive experience, albeit a bit challenging due to the nature of the problem.
