Goldcast Interview Experience – Senior Software Engineer 2 (Backend)

The interview was conducted on Interview Vector on behalf of Goldcast.

The interviewer explicitly expected:

• First, discuss an optimized approach
• Then, dry run the solution
• Only after that, proceed to write code

Questions asked:

1. Movement of Robots - https://leetcode.com/problems/movement-of-robots/description/
2. Restore IP Addresses – https://leetcode.com/problems/restore-ip-addresses/

Both problems required clear thinking, edge case handling, and structured communication before coding.
