Tekion SE2 Interview | Rejected
Summary
I completed Tekion's SE2 interview process, which included an online low‑level design test and two DSA questions, but was ultimately rejected.
Full Experience
first round was an online test, where we had to do the low level design of a parking lot
we were allowed to use AI
second round was dsa and problem solving
first question
https://leetcode.com/problems/reschedule-meetings-for-maximum-free-time-i/description/
i misunderstood the question completely, i was thinking we need to maximize total contiguous free time by rescheduling at most k meetings, and hence i started thinking in completely wrong direction
i am regretting now that i should have asked one example input and output.
he proposed to switch question after some time, i agreed, then he came up with https://leetcode.com/problems/max-consecutive-ones-iii/description/
again, for some reason, i related this question with the first one, and and started thinking in the wrong direction again
sliding window just didn't come to my mind at all, i had solved so many of such questions, but couldn't solve it in the interview, so yeah rejected.
