This was a hiring event onsite, but conducted virtaully via codility due to COVID-19.
4 rounds, the below questions were asked:

844. Backspace String Compare

  • follow up: how to handle left/right arrow keys?

1236. Web Crawler (premium)

  • changed the problem to find out only those URLs which are dead (HttpStatusCode: 40X, 50X, etc) and in same domain.

75. Sort Colors

  • after 2 pass, need to implement in 1 pass

227. Basic Calculator II

  • operators to support: + - * / ^

Even though I answered all of them properly with followup answers, I was rejected :(
This happened to me several times, not sure exactly where I can improve!
