Indeed Interview - Obsessed with HashMap
Aug 27, 2018

I recently interviewed with Indeed, and every one of the interviewers asked me how a hashmap is implemented (like separate chaining and complexity)? Either they don't have a coordination between them, or it's a very important part of the organization. Any thoughts/experiences?

Almost all of our our whiteboard questions can be answerable with something like a simple list or hashmap but we are seeing if you could use something more appropriate (heap/queue/stack/tree) instead. It would be concerning though if the interviewers were actively pushing you for a hash map solution only though.
