I have to say it’s the worst phone interview experience ever... a leetcode hard problem with acceptance under 20%, need to compile and run , online, within 45 min... I’ve finished the algorithm but no time to write test cases... ran it verbally.. no idea why you don’t ask about solving problems within iOS field!!!! Are you looking for ACMers? As a former ACMer, I surrender...

Former ACMer?
What then?
Doesn't these problems look trivial to you?
As I've said dozens of times, those interviews give zero signal about iOS ability. I don't ask them when I make hires. I don't care how well you can leetcode with a prefix trie if you can't write multithreaded code, don't really know what dispatch_async actually does, or can't talk to me about real world design patterns.
All cute monkeys.🐵🙊🐒
You are lovely:)
What questions have you been asked? As a iOS engineer, I’ve been asked to implemented a LRU cache through doubly Link list in objC within 45 mins phone screen. So pissed.
Cannot really tell but it’s something related to string and it’s very complex... if you search with all info the I provided, you can find the only candidate...
Last time I got asked LRU during phone screen it took me 25 minutes to finish without any rush. BUT, I have used C++/STL, couldn't imagine this shit using JS or even Java.
iOS engineer here. Got rejected by WhatsApp during final round after solving LRU Cache but I couldn’t remember how to make functions thread safe in Java which is something I learned freshman year of college and not relevant to iOS
Thread safety is relevant to any software that runs these days.
Yes but in Java you just add the synchronized keyword to the function def to make it Thread safe while for swift (iOS) it’s different (using GCD) so the question wasn’t relevant to the role I was looking for

lol. I know. Interviews serve no purpose nowadays. What is ACM
