the first round for this position was Written test. Following are the questions -
1. Write a program to find next largest element in binary search tree.
2. Write a program to search element in circular sorted array
3. Write a program to reverse a linked list in a chunk of 3 . ex. consider the following linked list 1-2-6-75-33-10-5-3-2 , then the output should be 6-2-1-10-33-75-2-3-5.
i was not shortlisted . so it might help others .
Surprisingly easy — I expected tougher questions, but the coding round felt more like a warm-up. The main challenge was a DSA problem about counting islands in a 2D grid, which led to a discussion on DFS versus BFS and handling large grids. Funny enough, I had revisited that exact type of question while prepping on PracHub, which made me feel more confident. The interview wrapped up with a behavioral round, and I accepted an offer, but ultimately decided to decline it for another opportunity. Overall, it was a smooth experience.

Pregunta 1
Number of Islands — given a 2D grid of '1's (land) and '0's (water), count the number of connected islands. Walk through DFS vs BFS, and discuss how to avoid revisiting cells (in-place mutation vs visited set) and what changes if the grid is huge and must stream from disk.
It started with an OA, and then after a few weeks, I got invited to four rounds of interviews: technical and behavioral at 3 of the 4, and behavioral only at one.
