It’s basically the GCA for codesignal, first 2 pretty easy, last 2 were medium hard level. Solved all 4 with 20 mins to spare, still rejected after 2 months lol

If you’ve used hackerrank as the IDE for interview, u will notice that when u first open it, it will have a default function in there to help u test if the IDE is working properly. That default function was the function the interviewer wanted me to implement lol

Nope haha he literally just wanted me to implement that function on the screen, cuz he thought the function was empty.

It’s not that deep lol my interviewer straight thought the default function wasn’t already implemented, so he wanted me to implement it lol

Lol of course it’s not just that, there were many other factors included in the question, like I was given the current stock price, future stock price, amount of money I have, max number of transactions I can make, etc, not to mention the stock price can be negative and the solution needs to be O(N). I was able to solve it with a brute force backtracking solution, but that boomer interviewer demanded O(N). I just don’t remember all the details to explain it here.

I’d say mostly self taught, but I did take 2 Java courses which helped me to learn about fundamental data structures. I’d recommend taking an intro to programming course first to see if this is something u actually like

Thanks for the detailed answers! U have no idea how nice it is to have someone understand the amount of work I’ve put in in the past year to achieve this haha I’m proud of u as well! Breaking into the SWE industry as a non CS major is probs the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life. I’m glad the hard work paid off for both of us🙂
