Full Experience
I interviewed for an SDE internship at Zomato. The interview began with questions related to my resume. Following this, the interviewer presented three coding challenges. The first two were standard LeetCode problems: Insert Delete GetRandom O(1) and Global and Local Inversions. The final question was a dynamic programming problem: There is an array P of prices of N objects, where Pi denotes the price of the ith object. You have to sell those objects, but you can pick the object either from the left end or the right end. The profit earned on selling the object on kth day is k times the price of the object. Find the maximum profit you can get. I was initially waiting for the result, but I'm happy to report that I received an offer.
Interview Questions (3)
This was a DP-based medium level question: There is an array P of prices of N objects, where Pi denotes the price of the ith object. I had to sell these objects, but I could pick them either from the left end or the right end. The profit earned on selling the object on the kth day is k times the price of the object. The goal was to find the maximum profit I could get.
