cyan scaffold
#

the freeze might have affected it tbh

knotty basin
#

Yeah definitely has to be the freeze

cyan scaffold
#

ye i didn't get optimal however i think my behavioral was good

#

and we discussed optimal

#

so ye i was just unlucky that my interview got scheduled right when they freezed

Not sure if Uber is on a hiring freeze, but Lyft definitely is (they removed all intern positions too)

native spruce

yeah but i got a lot of hints from my interviewer

native spruce

#

my interview led me into doing brute force and then there wasn't enough time 😭

native spruce
#

man it rlly depends on the interviewer :/

cyan scaffold
#

ye then he wasted more time showing an o(1) solution for a problem that should be at most o(nlog(n))

native spruce
#

tf? flexing on a college kid and for what😭

#

if they ask a hard q this thursday its over for me

cyan scaffold
#

i kinda blame it on myself i didn't study enough tagged but at the same time my interviewer kinda messed stuff up

#

like a hint would have been more than enough in the beginning

did he lead u into doing brute force then optimize

native spruce
#

ye basically i asked if i could start with brute force and optimize after and she agreed

#

cuz ngl its hard for me to optimize w/o having some code written down first

cyan scaffold
#

ye idk i didn't like how my interviewer cut me off from doing the optimized solution with 20 minutes left

native spruce
#

see that's the thing w these interviews its literally luck cuz usually ur allowed to do bruteforce

#

but always try to ask first
