long and tedious. some of the interviewers were snobbish and knew very little about how to conduct an interview. they knew java but were not open minded to understand how it works in python. they had a fixed answer in mind and wanted that only when the question could have been solved in multiple optimal ways.
Overall, I found this to be a very challenging experience. I struggled with the majority of the material and concepts presented, which made it difficult to keep up at times. Many of the problems required a deep understanding of the underlying principles and strong problem-solving skills, particularly in areas related to algorithms and data structures.
In hindsight, I would highly recommend dedicating significant time to studying LeetCode (LC) and Logic Puzzles (LP) in advance. Practicing these types of problems regularly would definitely help build the intuition and technical foundation needed to approach the questions more effectively. With better preparation and familiarity, especially in algorithmic thinking and pattern recognition, I believe the experience would be much more manageable and rewarding.
In summary, while it was a tough challenge, it also highlighted key areas for improvement and emphasized the importance of consistent practice.
The interview process was medium difficulty, you can find most of the questions they ask on leetcode. I would do the top 25 by company Good luck at the interview
