Interview Process
The interview consisted of both coding and behavioral questions. The coding portion involved solving two problems, both focusing on algorithmic thinking and data structures. The first problem required the implementation of a binary tree search, while the second involved dynamic programming to find the maximum sum subarray. After coding, I was asked to explain my thought process and approach to the problems. The behavioral part revolved around teamwork experiences and how I manage conflicts in a tech environment. Overall, the interview lasted about 45 minutes, including both coding and discussion time.
Technical Questions
