#Process and timeline
tired totem
Timeline:
- Reach out four weeks ago, scheduled final day after finishing OA 4/4
- Finished final almost exactly two weeks ago
2 technical, 1 behavioral: 3/4 easy tagged top 30, 1 non tagged easy/medium. Solved almost everything optimally had some errors that I fixed during dry run, asked a lot of clarifying questions. Behavioral went deep 2-4 follow-up per “tell me a time…” question, we spoke for the whole 40 min.

which programming language did you use many are telling to use python to save time or else java or c++ is fine ?
river mango
I think you saved time right
tired totem
Perhaps but just use what you’ve been using to prepare u don’t want to get stuck on syntax errors
Being comfortable with the language you’re coding in is more important than a few seconds
