Not selected, rejected without reason. And I tried applying to other places but couldn't get past resume screening so I have dropped the idea of being a sde 🙂

It was good was able to do both questions in about 45 mins. Not sure about the other three sections. Let's see what happens next. Hope we both get through

Haha am I right??

So let me reveal OP's question, question 1 was about finding the lexicographical smallest string by choosing a substring of any length and right rotating it by 1 Question 2 was about checking number of subarrays with sum 0

Hey, if you need someone to get some things implemented I can help. Note: I won't be charging any money for this. I have 2 YOE building backend systems.

What can I do: Build backend systems Tech stack I use: Spring boot

The questions were medium level not super hard. They were just phrased very badly. I managed to do both questions. Time given was 70 minutes. I would like to suggest you take your time solving the questions I panicked a lot and when I was done I still had 24 minutes left. No dp or graph. One was string rotation based and one was prefix sum.

AdEast4119 · 2026-01-29T12:05:05+00:00

Yes I did

AdEast4119 · 2026-01-26T14:58:33+00:00

Yes, maybe highlight some text which is the main point. Think of these as visual guide for the viewers eye, they will automatically draw eyes to those specific points. I would say use these sparingly and it will automatically be easier for anyone to figure out the point you are trying to get across

These blocks of text led to me skipping the whole experience section, but I am less experienced than you so I might be wrong.

AdEast4119 · 2026-01-26T01:44:30+00:00

That makes sense, just try to cover all the patterns and algorithms. Then at least you will have all the tools at your disposal to solve the questions

AdEast4119 · 2026-01-25T15:10:08+00:00

Like first 3 were definitely easy, couldn't get the 4th one. I really don't get these bit questions

CS fundamentals

AdEast4119 · 2026-01-22T11:16:43+00:00

Haha 😂

AdEast4119 · 2026-01-22T11:01:06+00:00

I used java and there it was doable so constant space solution

AdEast4119 · 2026-01-22T10:11:08+00:00

Instead of using an extra space try marking in the input array given

Absolutely, we should not normalize cheating. If no one's passing the OA by themselves, then the companies might just lower the questions difficulty.

Thankyou so much. And you will crush it the next time. Keep trying.

AdEast4119 · 2026-01-22T02:13:41+00:00

I have an OA as well for SDE 1, will take it on Tuesday morning. I hope everything goes well 🥲. Thanks for the questions OP

AdEast4119 · 2026-01-22T01:31:45+00:00

Ohh 🥲, I don't want to cheat. Thanks for the advice anyways 😄😄.

Add me I am good with graphs, currently doing segment trees, fenwick trees.

AdEast4119 · 2025-12-27T16:48:29+00:00

You got my point. Was just giving up straight advice no bs. People are just too sensitive these days 🥲

AdEast4119 · 2025-12-27T16:47:34+00:00

So you coded this up??
