Round 1 - Technical 

(1 Question)

  • Q1. Find loop in a linklist
  • Ans. 

    To find a loop in a linked list, use Floyd's Cycle Detection Algorithm.

    • Use two pointers, slow and fast, to traverse the linked list.

    • If there is a loop, the fast pointer will eventually meet the slow pointer.

    • Once they meet, move one pointer back to the head and start moving both pointers one node at a time until they meet again.

    Reversing a linked list involves changing the direction of the pointers in the list.

    • Iteratively swap the next and previous pointers of each node in the list

    • Recursively reverse the rest of the list and then change the next pointer of the current node

    • Use a stack to push each node onto the stack and then pop them off to create the reversed list

  • Answered by AI
  • Q2. MinStack, implement a stack with o(1) to get the min value
  • Ans. 

    Implement a stack with O(1) to get the min value.

    • Use two stacks, one for the actual values and one for the minimum values

    • Push the new value onto the value stack and compare it with the top of the minimum stack

    • If it's smaller or equal, push it onto the minimum stack as well

    • When popping a value, check if it's the minimum and pop from the minimum stack if so

  • Answered by AI
  • Q3. Implement array with o(1) setAll, set all the array to this value in o(1)
  • Ans. 

    Implement array with O(1) setAll to set all values to a given value.

    • Create an array of strings with a fixed size.

    • Create a variable to store the value to be set.

    • When setAll is called, assign the value to the variable.

    • When accessing any element of the array, return the value stored in the variable.

    • This approach ensures that all elements of the array are set to the same value in constant time.

an influencer marketing manager

Should she delete her LinkedIn post or not?
Asking for a friend, Since last 3 months, she has been facing multiple issues including mental harassment by her manager at her workplace. She tried all official channels including reporting to the HR and even to the CEO eventually, but surprisingly, nothing happened. Infact, as a retaliation, she was put on PIP last month by here manager. So finally as a response to this continuous harassment, she went to LinkedIn and called out her manager, the company and even the CEO. And this is what she has received in response! The company is threatening her of legal actions and now we are confused, whether to delete the posts or to maintain our stand. Any help would be highly recommended at this point!

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: CODING ROUND
Experience: In the coding round there were 3 questions to be solved in about 3 hrs.

Round: HR Interview
Experience: Expect the usual crazy questions like "Why LinkedIn?" and if you are already placed, be ready to give a proper justification for "Why LinkedIn and not XYZ?" so on. Be cool, you need not be accurate. Be well prepared with your resume and expect questions from them.
Tips: For the interview, just be confident and have a good resume ready with you.

Round: Other Interview
Experience: Coding Interview:
Simple coding questions. Make sure you first explain the logic to them and then you may be asked to write the code for it on the board using any language of your choice. Syntax is not a big deal, but don't make any logical errors. They are very friendly and may suggest certain solutions of their own. Make sure you can grasp them quickly. Find faults in your own code before they find it. Always try to give the best optimal solution. In case you are unable to do so then suggest possible improvements.

Round: Other Interview
Experience: Design Interview:
Some people may find this round a bit uneasy. But this round tests how good you are at designing solutions to problems. Most of the candidates were asked to build an online gaming system. And then they keep adding extra constraints and ideas and see if you can integrate them to your design. Database knowledge may be tested. They may also ask questions pertaining to you projects listed in your resume.

General Tips: An updated LinkedIn account with decent connections. ;)
Skill Tips: Be very strong with your coding ability. Whenever you code, do follow some standard procedures and make the code look simple and structured. Whenever you solve a coding question make sure you answer it completely for all the test cases. Partial results will only indicate that there is something wrong with the logic. Try to solve a complete question rather than multiple questions with partial results.

General Tips: It might help in general to try to become a better developer at all times. One way to get good at it is to really enjoy what you do!Do random projects, use linux, Read Hacker News (-----/)  daily and wear hippie computer t-shirts (:-P) - Interviewers really LOVE talking about these, especially HR rounds (my HR interviewer was also a programmer).
