After the online debugging, code writing, and work day simulation rounds, I was invited to a 45 minute final round interview with an engineer.
Started off with interviewer introducing themselves, then introduced myself.
The questions consisted of:
- 2 behavioral questions based on the Leadership Principles.
- Some data structures/algorithms questions (no codewriting)
- 1 LC easy/medium code writing question
Then had the chance to ask interviewer questions.
Got my offer a week later.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Talk about a time when you went above and beyond to help a team
Standard LC mediums, nothing too crazy. Interviewer was pretty chill and was helpful in pointing me in the right direction when I needed as well. Only thing I would probably change was to study more on graph problems before hand.

Question 1
You are given an 0-indexed integer array weights, where weights[i] represents the weight of the i-th marble, and an integer k.
Your task is to divide the marbles into k bags such that:
No bag is empty.
Each bag must contain marbles from a contiguous range of indices. That is, if a bag includes marbles at indices i and j, then all marbles with indices between i and j (inclusive) must also be included in that same bag.
The cost of a bag that includes marbles from index i to j (inclusive) is defined as weights[i] + weights[j].
The total score of a distribution is the sum of the costs of all k bags.
Return the difference between the maximum and minimum possible scores among all valid distributions.
Applied online and received an Online Assessment. It consisted of two LeetCode-style coding problems with a time limit . The process was straightforward and fully automated with no human interaction at this stage.

Question 1
Solve a coding problem involving array manipulation under a timed online assessment
There were 2 rounds- one DSA round and one HR round.
In the first round they asked me a DP + trees question which was of medium to hard difficulty.
In the second round the interviewer asked me about my resume, my projects, some computer fundamental questions.
