#

r1 were typical LC

#

the VO were not from LC but used sliding window and DFS

#

my first intvw was design a function to check if someone can win in connect 4

#

after that one, my interview said he will move me on and 15 mins later i had someone else join who gave me an mxn matrix with a car and a destination in it, there were also rocks (cant visit) and gas stations to fill up gas

#

i had to write a function to determine if the car could visit the destination given a starting gas tank amnt

#

i did it with dfs and a stack to keep track of the states, we walked thru it and i was asked to explain it and walk thru cases and complexity

#

was then asked abt prev experiences and describe a time i worked in a team

#

i think there was supposed to be HR round today as well but my first interviewer was an hour late so by the time i finished the second technical i hit the end of my time slot (4hrs)

#

but i think if im moved on its just HR and then EM/HM with sys design

#

holy fuck bruh

velvet rain
#

what the actual fuck

livid thunder
#

me?

#

yes

#

my first rd was in this order: cycle in linked list verbally, n queens, buy and sell iii, then the bucket brain teaser

#

i finished first rd in 45 mins

#

and my interviewer got mad

#

cuz he ran out of questions

#

hence the brain teaser

#

yeah

#

this was the teaser "You are doing some gardening, and need exactly 4 liters of water to mix up some special formula for your award winning roses.

But you only have a 5-liter and a 3-liter bowl, but do have access to plenty of water.

How would you measure exactly 4 liters?"

#

its not as hard as a quant brain teaser but its silly to be asking for a swe internship
