Software engineers write programs to design and develop computer software. Interviews are highly technical, so come ready to work through coding problems and math brainteasers. The specific questions you are asked will depend on what type of programming position you are looking for. Try researching a specific software discipline such as web development, application development, or system development.
Write a function to determine if a bin tree is a valid BST. I wrote a fully working solution in 3-5 minutes. It was also the most optimal but maybe because she needed to kill time, she asked me to rewrite it in what she thought was optimal (her reasoning didn't make much sense). Then she asked me for time and space requirements of the solutions. I said O(n) for both which is correct but she insisted that the space requirement was O(logn) which is wrong.
Print a binary tree level by level
Given an integer, if the number is prime, return 1. Otherwise return its smallest divisor greater than 1. e.g. if n = 24, its divisors are [1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24]. The smallest divisor greater than 1 is 2.
Q: You are given two arrays of size m and n. Find the common elements between those arrays. Say, arr1 = {2, 5, 3} and arr2 = {5, 1, 2}. The common elements between those arrays are as follow: ans = {2, 5}
You have 2 jars and 50 black beads and 50 white beads. How many would you put of each color in each jar so that if a bead was randomly selected from both jars, you had the greatest chance they would match? You have to put all of the beads in the jars.

Write a function to multiply two arbitrarily large integers.
phone numbers: provided a phone number (654-876-0987), return all possible strings that the phone number could represent if 2 -> {A, B, C}, 3 -> {D, E, F}, and so on common substring: find the biggest common substring in 2 strings, "abcdef" "gbcdh" would return "bcd"
How do you find the kth smallest number in a binary search tree.
Regular expression and strStr. I was not able to give KMP algorithm to strStr
