Goldman Sachs Software Development Engineer (SDE) interview questions

The process started with a CoderPad technical round conducted remotely. The interview consisted of two coding problems with a time constraint. The first problem was a straightforward algorithmic question involving array manipulation and search, which I solved completely. The second problem involved graph traversal and cycle detection — I had the correct approach worked out but ran out of time to fully implement it. The interviewers were professional and the platform worked smoothly. Overall a standard technical screen for a large financial firm, though the time pressure was significant. Received a rejection email about a week after the interview.
