solved the first qn pretty quick it was lc easy hashmap, second one was a tweaked lc medium graphs, i was so close to solving that shit, my code was complete, but had like 2 bugs that im aware of but my brain froze after running through test cases

#

interviewer said hr will contact you when i asked for next steps 💀

solar jasper
#

we’re the questions tagged?

violet stratus
#

yah easy was tagged, med was tagged but like tweaked

#

u'd need to know the algo to solve it

#

and figure out which lc its similar to😂

candid coral
#

wdym know the algo

#

wouldn’t it just be a traversal or something

violet stratus
#

yeah like bfs/dfs

candid coral
#

oh ok

violet stratus
#

where are u in the process?

candid coral
#

i got my final round in two days

#

two techs and recruiter phone

violet stratus
#

damn

#

u think i got a chance for next steps lol

candid coral
#

honestly yeah they don’t care about 100% correctness

violet stratus
#

i was pretty good with my thought process and explaining my algo

violet stratus
candid coral
#

yes

#

what was the graph problem like

#

there was some hella weird graph problems on the tagged

#

oh that’s alright

violet stratus
#

no not hella weird lol

candid coral
#

yeah on the tagged some of the graph problems on the bottom
half were just crazy

#

just hard to understand entirely

violet stratus
#

i think interviewers themselves wont ask u something super wierd

candid coral
#

yeah i’d hope so

#

they didn’t have u run anything right

violet stratus
#

like how can u interview someone if u urself cant understand shit

candid coral
#

just dry run

violet stratus
#

uuh yeah but i wish i ran my code

candid coral
#

i’ve heard that bb tends to ask straightforward questions as in they might be non trivial to
implement but there’s no weird trick you have to just get

violet stratus
#

easier to debug😂

candid coral
#

yeah it would be nice but then u gotta actually write down test cases and shit

candid coral
#

i lowk prefer just doing dry runs

#

esp since bb doesn’t care abt 100% correctness as long as u were pretty close

violet stratus
#

i hope what u're saying applies to me

candid coral
#

tbh i think u got a good shot u might wanna start on tagged soon

#

there’s a lot and u don’t wanna have to do what i did

#

had a week and a half to grind all the tagged

violet stratus
#

bro there's like 831qs tagged

#

im not doing all of them ong

candid coral
#

do the 200 in the past 3 mo

#

that’s what i did

violet stratus
#

yeah thats not bad, at half progress already

candid coral
#

yeah pretty good, your turnaround time might take a week or so

#

but keep in mind i got my invite just less than 2 weeks ago and even then there were ppl scheduled into the first week of nov

#

so it might be a while for u

timid light
#

@candid coral did u get tagged questions as well?

candid coral
#

for my first round no

violet stratus
#

im gonna ask for expedite , i should hear back from about my linkedin internship ro this week hopefully

candid coral
#

idt a expedite will work

#

they didn’t even give us scheduling options cus they were overbooked

violet stratus
#

oof oki

solar jasper
#

did your interviewer give u an example test case?

violet stratus
#

ye

round mango
#

@candid coral is the final in person?

solar jasper
#

what abt like class and function? or u gotta write that yourself

violet stratus
#

write ur own classes and functions yeah

#

u just get a commented problem description my guy

solar jasper
#

ok thanks

candid coral
violet stratus
#

round mango
elder vector
#

I am pretty sure final is talking with engineering manager

candid coral
candid coral
#

it was fine i solved it but i def made some dumb errors while coding that should’ve been avoided

candid coral
#

well i did end up fixing them pretty soon after making them

upper haven
#

did yall apply through the leaked link? or did theyc ome to ur school

candid coral
#

i applied to whatever link i saw on cvrve

round mango
#

opaque loom
#

word

solid fable
#

You sure they don't secretly run it after the interview?

#

Once I did an interview where the interviewer asked me to email him my code so that he can run it later

elder vector
#

nah they dont
