Summary

I had a phone screen for an E5 role at Meta in the USA, where I was asked to solve two LeetCode problems: Binary Tree Vertical Order Traversal and K Closest Points to Origin. I passed this round and am now scheduled for a full loop interview.

How it went

Had phone screen today

Gave the tree and asked to figure out the order. I could not do it, so he gave me hint that it is vertically ordered.

For both problems, asked to print them.

Waiting for results.
