Hello, I have my technical phone interview in 1 week for SETI role. My primary concern is with backtracking problems. I get nervous right after hearing such question. I am studying but how likely is it that they would ask a backtracking problem in phone interview? Are there any specific DS and Algo topics that I should cover for Phone Interview? TC-80k YOE-2
Backtracking is common. Its usually used to solve hard problems where there isnโt really more efficient solutions available. Essentially it exhausts all the possibilities in the ๐ฒ. It sounds complicated but once you get the idea of where the recursion tree ends and how they are โbacktrackedโ by removing their foot prints, you would have better time solving.
People here usually scared with DP problems so do I๐
