Walmart | Software Engineer III (IN3) | | May | Rejected

I interviewed for the position of Software Engineer III in .

The first round was a phone screen focused on Java coding. The interviewer asked me to rate my Data Structures and Algorithms (DSA) skills, and I gave myself an 8. They then presented me with the following questions:

1. Minimum falling path sum (Leetcode problem)
2. Use of volatile and transient keywords in Java
3. Write code using multithreading in Java for multiple producers and multiple consumers

I was able to write the code for a single producer and consumer but ran out of time before completing the code for multiple producers and consumers. I explained my approach and the working of the code to the interviewer.

I did not receive a response for 2.5 weeks and then sent an email requesting an update. I received a rejection email within a few minutes.
