Interview Process
The interview was split into two parts: a coding challenge and a behavioral section. For the coding challenge, I was given a problem that involved implementing a function to find the longest substring without repeating characters. After explaining my thought process, I wrote the code in Python and ran through some test cases to demonstrate its functionality. The behavioral section included questions about my previous projects, teamwork experiences, and how I handle conflicts within a team. Overall, the interview felt comprehensive and friendly, although it was quite challenging.
