LCA of a Binary Tree

Cutting Ribbons

I was able to explain my approach & code for both questions.

How do you cope with negative feedback ?

Tell about a time you got into a conflict with your manager or peer and how did you work to resolve it.

Tell about a time where you could not meet deadlines for a critical project

There was a lot of cross questioning in this round. My advise would be to be very honest in this round and have examples of such instances in the back of your mind before the interview.

Balance parentheses

Find local minima in an array, had a follow up question where they asked me if my approach would work for case where there could be duplicates in the array.

I was able to explain my approach and code both questions, but my code did have some minor bugs.

System Design: Design Instagram. The interviewer seemed quite friendly and made me feel comfortable during the interview. I feel I could have done better though. It was my first attempt at a design round and I was a little nervous.

Result: They want to schedule a follow-up coding round.

EDIT 1

I gave a follow up coding interview last week, but haven't heard from them yet!

EDIT 2

i thought i did well in follow up coding round, but received a rejection from them yesterday with no feedback from recruiter.

EDIT 3:

my recruiter got back saying that I did not perform well in follow up round. Im quite disappointed because I solved both questions!
