What algorithms questions did they ask you during the phone interview?

Vudu CfqO17 OP Oct 16, 2018

Merge intervals. Merge two lists of intervals into one.

Nice. How many minutes it take? Any hints?

Vudu CfqO17 OP Oct 16, 2018

First question is merge list of intervals unsortef. I said I have seen this question before and explained how to solve. Then next question is to find meeting rooms from leetcode to find any conflict in schedule . I have said I have seen this and explained logic. Then this question given. I took entire 40 minutes. I did change method while coding to better structured code. In total took 30 to 35 minutes. Leaving initial 5 min discussion about first 2 questions and last 5 minutes for questions to ask interviewer. I think interview started 5 min late.

Sorry I am a little confused. The last question asked was merging two lists of intervals, right? And the first one is also merging intervals, but unsorted, right? I remember leetcode has merge intervals question, but it was only one list. Thanks for sharing.

Yes. Last one merging of two lists. Interviewer didn’t specify that sorted or not. I assumed sorted, let him know my assumption.
