Interview Process

The interview consisted of two main cases. The interviewer provided guidance throughout the process, but I found myself lost at times. The first case included assertions that I could not fully pass. Overall, the experience felt unproductive from a hiring perspective, as it seemed that candidates who could complete the tasks in under an hour may not be the ones interested in the position.

Technical Questions

  1. AI Coding Challenge (AI, Dynamic Programming)
  2. Debugging Complex Systems (Debugging, System Design)

Tips & Insights

It may be beneficial to prepare thoroughly for other rounds of interviews, as there is a lack of resources available online for practicing AI-enabled coding challenges. It felt like being a test subject, and I suggest moving on to other opportunities.
