Interview Process
The interview process consisted of a screening followed by three rounds of coding interviews. The initial screening was straightforward, focusing on a simple question related to restaurant areas. The subsequent rounds were more challenging, with a total of three coding rounds.
- Round 1: A question related to reconstructing an itinerary.
- Round 2: A problem involving matching spam calls based on logs, where if a report time and a call time are close, it is considered spam. The task was to return a list of individuals who were impacted multiple times.
- Round 3: A question similar to the first round mentioned in a previous post, involving a Leetcode problem that was not specified.
There was also a question related to the “Logger Rate Limiter,” which is a common algorithmic problem.
