Waiting for result
The interview consisted of both coding and behavioral questions. The coding challenge was to implement a function that calculates the maximum profit from stock prices given an array of prices. Behavioral questions focused on teamwork experience and conflict resolution.
I felt prepared as I practiced multiple problems on LeetCode. The interviewer was friendly and provided hints when I struggled with the coding question. After a certain time, I was prompted to submit my solution and moved on to the behavioral section.
I shared my experiences working on team projects during my internships and discussed how I learned to work in diverse teams.
