Status : ( almost 2 months at a top pbc)
Gave OA around starting of june, heard back late august that i had cleared it and had my 2 technical rounds recently. Signed an NDA so cant disclose exact question.
Technical Round 1
Interviewer was a sde-1 and directly jumped to coding problem. First problem was LC medium on strings. I gave an unoptimized approach and he told me to code it as we didnt have a lot of time, he asked me to give optimal approach verbally and i was able to explain him. Second question was tougher and I couldnt code the full solution as we only had few mins left and he also wanted to ask questions based on my resume. Was able to explain the idea behind full solution and he seemed satisfied with it. He then asked me some questions on my current job and why i am leaving it, also asked an lp question.
Technical Round 2
We had introductions and then she asked me an lp question. after that i was asked an lc medium question based on finding overlapping intervals, then an lc easy question on arrays and finally i was asked an lc medium question on binary trees but for some reason she told code was not required(pretty sure i gave her the correct answer).
If i clear this ill have my 3rd round which would be with hiring manager and if im able to clear that ill have another hm round. But doubtful about clearing technical as my first round went mediocre and i was expected to write production ready code.
