Interview Process
The interview began with a mix of behavioral and technical questions. The interviewer started with behavioral questions about my background and experiences working on team projects. Following that, I was presented with a technical challenge related to grid distances, specifically a problem similar to the Robot Grid Distance Challenge. I was tasked with figuring out the shortest path a robot could take on a grid to reach its destination while avoiding obstacles. During this part, I wrote code on a shared editor and explained my thought process. This coding portion took a considerable amount of time, but I was able to effectively walk through the solution. The interview concluded with additional behavioral questions focusing on my problem-solving approach and collaboration skills.
