Selected in OA with 20 more students able to complete 3 question
mostly classic question 1-string based comparison with some condition
2)DFS with 8 dirn 3) knight move

Interview - Started
1) alien dictionary - have to code and dry run on test cases - done in 20 min and able to run all test cases

2)Course schedule 3- start with end sorting and comparision based approach they give counter case then shifted to end sorting with
dp approach to which he askted tc then said to optimise it
but not able to optimise

Verdict - Rejected

Interview Questions (3)

Q1
Knight's Move
Data Structures & AlgorithmsMedium

One of the classic questions in the Online Assessment involved a Knight's move problem, likely related to pathfinding or reachable squares on a chessboard.

Q2
Alien Dictionary
Data Structures & AlgorithmsHard

I was asked to code the Alien Dictionary problem and perform a dry run with test cases. I completed it in 20 minutes and successfully passed all test cases.

Q3
Course Schedule III
Data Structures & AlgorithmsHard

I initially approached Course Schedule III using an end sorting and comparison-based method. After a counter-case from the interviewer, I switched to an end sorting with a dynamic programming approach. The interviewer inquired about its time complexity and asked for optimization, which I was unable to achieve.
