Question 1
Don't remember exactly, but it relates to dealing with vertical lines in binary trees, can be solved using divide & conquer.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Lytx in Apr 2023
Interview
Awful experience, applied through referral. Got a mail in a few days saying my skills are a match for the position. Recruiter wants to talk to me. Researched and studied about the company. Recruiter says they are not hiring for this position. Only locals to San Diego were considered. Could have said this in the mail itself. A 4-min chat with recruiter explaining to me the process and nothing else. Wasted few hours to get nothing out of them. Poor communication from their end.
Got online assessment after applying, before talking to HR. Solved assignment, scheduled talk with HR. HR totally ghosted me, never responded to emails even. Got rejection email after a few months. Very unprofessional, avoid these guys
