Hey,
I’m sorry to hear that. But could you please lmk how the interview was?

Was it all hard que?

marsh jay Oct 1, 2024, 4:42 PM

#

not at all

#

easy to medium tricky questions with easy implementation for the first one and a hard one last

#

honestly it seems like your chances are still pretty good! my last interview was yesterday

sharp fossil hey, sorry to hear that. Can I know your timeline?

i can't give you exact dates honestly because it'll be a hassle to go through my email

#

but it took me around 3 weeks to hear back for OA

from OA or onsite?

sharp fossil from OA or onsite?

OA. i had onsite a while after (maybe like around 3 weeks) hearing back from OA, then i did around 300 questions (mostly doing leetcode 10 hours a day). then i had my onsite, but one interview got cancelled

#

my onsite was last week (3 interviews) and then yesterday i had my last one

#

also, don't DM me to ask about this. you can ask here in the open so it helps other people as well

#

ill try my best to answer everyone

frigid pollen Hey sorry to hear man. How did you feel about it when you took it?

it felt very collaborative if that makes sense, i thought thats what they wanted. everyone was happy and they all told me they were very happy to interview me

#

but honestly on that last one i really had a hard time implementing a hard question

#

Oh man sorry to hear that. Any feedback from your recruiter?

marsh jay Oct 1, 2024, 5:18 PM

#

she said "git gud"

#

pretty much get better at DSA and implementation

#

do you think your last technical interview (the one similar to russian dolls) screwed you?

marsh jay Oct 1, 2024, 5:31 PM

#

maybe? the thing is maybe i got LH on some of the other ones

#

and the last one would be like the "decider"

#

and unfortunately it went sideways

#

it is what it is

obtuse warren Oct 1, 2024, 5:32 PM

marsh jay Oct 1, 2024, 5:32 PM

obtuse warren Oct 1, 2024, 5:33 PM

#

out of curiosity, are there any leetcode equivalents to your other two questions?

marsh jay Oct 1, 2024, 5:34 PM

#

obtuse warren Oct 1, 2024, 5:35 PM

#

marsh jay Oct 1, 2024, 5:35 PM

#
