First Spherical: I used to be requested one query which was to seek out the longest growing sequence (contiguous) in a grid, which I solved with a DP + DFS strategy, The interviewer twisted some constraints within the query and requested questions round it and likewise requested questions on complexities of the options and what would occur if the constraints had been scaled up, and likewise requested me to dry run some circumstances.Â
Second spherical: Although it’s a Tech. + HR spherical, I used to be solely requested one coding query, Â possibly because of a scarcity of time. On this spherical, he requested me to make use of any editor of my selection and to share the display screen. The query was a variation of Prime okay numbers in a stream I used to be requested to do that query with phrases as an alternative of numbers. After I coded the strategy, he twisted the query just a little bit, nevertheless it was manageable to reply. Once more, this spherical additionally had a query primarily based on scaling up the constraints of the issue. So the corporate asks questions primarily based on the constraints, and to reply these questions, one should know the nuances of the tactic they’re utilizing to resolve the issue.
