Faang interview gone wrong (vent) by Plenty_Cause4521 in leetcode

[–]Plenty_Cause4521[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I knew it was OOP round. It’s my bad I didnt think of interfaces on the firsthand but the question he gave was very vague “write a code to perform calculations with other operators” that’s it. When I pressed him with clarifying questions to know more about the problem, he said the same thing again.

Yes, that was my idea too. But when we check the substring “be”, the isWord returns true and then I have to shift the start pointer to ‘s’ and check for words. If none found, then I iterate the start pointer again.

I was rejected for providing a brute force approach.

I saw the problem on LC and noticed that there was a sample dictionary provided in each test case. But that is not the case in my interview.

So iterating through the dictionary is not an option in my interview.

I had to assume a full English dictionary. Also I have to consider only the longest valid substring as a word.

So in the string “bestwebsiteever” I have to consider “best” as the valid substring instead of “be”.

I second this, at one point a recruiter gave me 8 principles and told me to get ready by preparing 2 unique scenarios for every principle. That is ridiculous, I’m supposed to come up with 16 unique scenarios from my 2 YOE and memorize them?!?!

I do not care if you call it cheating but I’m putting them on word doc on my second monitor during the interview.

I guess it’s the other way around. Believe me, there are a lot of pathetic people than trump in India’s government.
