Before anyone reads this, I just want to tell you that don't loose hope and keep pushing even if you are not getting calls and facing multiple rejections. You will get what you deserve.
I have extensive years of experience in Software development, reach out if you need to talk to someone.

Screening :

  • Coding 1 : Print edge of a binary tree
  • Coding 2 : Second largest number using array permutations.

Loop

Coding 1 :

  • Pick a random number index for a max number in an array, variation of the actual Leetcode question. (solved with a bug in time but could not dry run efficiently) - Interviewer did not accept the HashMap answer.

  • Any Local Minima number in an array (Coded and dry ran but interviewer was confused for a long period of time).

Coding 2 :

  • Validate string based on encoded string vs original string (f7k == facebook) (Coded and dry ran efficiently)

  • Variation Random pick index based on the item weights. (Coded and dry ran efficiently)

System Design :

  • Covered almost all functional use cases with 1-2 deep dives, missed 1 Functional requirement when was reminded by intervier, modified it.

Behavioural :
Decent

Now waiting for the feedback but I honestly don't have much hope given it was for E6.
