Full Experience
I had a phone screen interview for an SSE position at Linkedin in Bengaluru. The discussion began with my current projects, where I was asked to elaborate on the most complex project I've worked on and suggest potential improvements to the system. Following this, the interviewer delved into core Java and Object-Oriented Programming (OOPS) concepts. We then moved on to Operating Systems, Multithreading, and Concurrency topics. The final part of the interview involved solving a specific LeetCode problem.
Interview Questions (1)
Given a nested list of integers, nestedList, where each element is either an integer or a list (which can itself contain integers or other lists), calculate the sum of all integers in the list weighted by their depth. The weight of an integer is calculated from the bottom up. That is, the deepest integers have the largest weight. If the maximum depth of any integer in the nested list is maxDepth, and an integer is at depth d (where the root list is depth 1), its weight will be maxDepth - d + 1. For example, for [1,[4,[6]]], the max depth is 3. The integer 1 is at depth 1 (weight 3), 4 at depth 2 (weight 2), and 6 at depth 3 (weight 1). The sum would be (13) + (42) + (6*1) = 17.
