The interview was the standard "Coding Gameshow" where you can win a job. The interviewer asked me two technical questions. I nailed the first one. The second one, I struggled for a 3-4 minutes (asking questions all along the way). I finally arrived at a linear solution to the problem. The interviewer was not familiar with my approach and told me I was wrong. I suggested it should work but then proceeded to work out the version of the solution he wanted. Unfortunately, I ran out of time. Interviewer was great to speak with, but ultimately was unfamiliar with all the solutions to the problem he asked.

Question 1
Given an a table, find all the paths from starting position to end.
Took about a month altogether, which felt longer given the intensity of the process. Kicked off with a technical screening, followed by two rigorous coding interviews. The DSA question on binary tree vertical order traversal hit me hard at first, but then I recognized the prompt instantly — I had just worked through something similar on PracHub. The final round was focused on system design, and while I ended up receiving an offer, I ultimately declined it. Overall, a challenging experience that definitely sharpened my skills.
1 leetcode med, 1 leetcode hard. make sure you know your DSA and leetcode questions. I wasn't able to get an offer bc i didnt complete the second question. Got a reply 2 days later saying they would move on
Overall, the process took a little over two weeks, which felt a bit longer than I anticipated. After a quick screening, I went through two technical rounds focusing on coding and DSA concepts. One of the questions was a classic palindrome check; mid-way through, I realized it was something I had practiced on PracHub just days earlier. The final step was a casual behavioral interview. I was relieved to get an offer shortly after, which I happily accepted.
