Can I postpone practicing hard problems till after i clear the phone screen?
Yeah
Yeah
Depends on the interviewer. I generally try to maintain the same level as the on-site.
And it is expected people solve a hard problem in 30 mins or less without having seen it before?
Unfortunately yes.
I ask a variety of questions, but I try to stay away from leetcode. Too many impostors who can do it and too few who truly understand.
I mean, it doesn’t really matter if you say not inclined right? They overrule those a lot I’ve heard.
Phone screen votes are recommendations but need to be taken seriously. Those managers that don’t lose credibility.
Yes
And it is expected people solve a hard problem in 30 mins or less without having seen it before?
Depends on the kind of hard problem
If it's a leetcode question, you must have done it before you apply.
Amzn. Be prepared for word break 2 !!
I think people are trolling, they're not going to ask a leetcode hard on a 30 min phone screen
I got a leetcode medium for my last phone screen (was at a FAANG)
Yeah
