Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Code Assesment: String operations, 2D arrays, sliding window
Power Day: Basic transaction code with deposit, transfer, withdraw. Virtual Card Numbers, analyze pros and cons, fix bugs in some code. Tell me about a time where you have problems with a lead, how you solve it. Design a Banking System
Power day style interview, two coding, one system design, one behavioral. Everyone was nice, but the interviewers seemed a little under prepared and/or new to interviewing in general. Questions where essentially leetcode medium/hard almost word for word.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Leetcode Count primes, looking for optimal solution
Code assessment then to power day interview with 4 rounds. Overall the power day interviews were okay except for the case study. The interviewer was disengage while being on their phone the whole time. There was a part where the interviewer said fix the mistakes then went back to their phone. I pointed out their code has other errors with template and was ignored. Then while attempting to fix those (10 mins later) they mentioned to ignore that part and focus on the very bottom part of the code. What a waste of time and very unprofessional. This makes me wager a few of the interviewers probably could not pass their own interview process today.
