Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The first tech interview is a tree-related question with 2 follow-ups.
3 round tech interview and 1 hr interview, tech interview involves writing 2 sql and 2 leetcode and bq questions and backend questions, each with 1h and the hr interview takes 30 minutes
Started with a self-introduction, asked about one, Leetcode problem 322. Coin Change, and one of my experiences on the resume as well. The interviewee can ask questions to the interviewer at the end of the interview.
Interviewer is nice and friendly, but they ask a lot about the basic definition of computer science instead of the real projects. And the algorithm questions are not easy. You must got hundreds of leedcode questions before the interview
