- Variation of Design Search Autocomplete System(https://leetcode.com/problems/design-search-autocomplete-system/)
Wrote working code in 15 min but interviewer grilled me very hard on various tradeoffs you could make and different approaches. He was satisfied after I showed him different way to implement it using backtracking, with proper complexity analysis on every function. In my opinion, 9/10 because I did not point out edge case before interviewer did
- Best Time to Buy and Sell Stock(https://leetcode.com/problems/best-time-to-buy-and-sell-stock/)
Literally same question. Went great. No surprise here. 10/10
- Design Hotel Booking System(OOD)
Didn't really prepare for OOD explicitly but interviewer was very nice and gave me plenty of hints. We spent almost 45 mins together and came to a design we were both happy with. 8/10 because I couldn't get it correct in one go and had to do fair amount of refactoring to get it right
Overall very positive experience with nice interviewers. Waiting for reply now...
EDIT: Recruiter said I passed with flying colors today!
