Skills Test
Please describe the interview / hiring process.
Applied through University recruiter during career fair (finance and STEM career fair). Got an invitation to do an online assessment test (OA) consists of 5 coding problems - to be solved in 75 minutes.
The problem isn't difficult, but caught off-guard for some of the concepts that are distant to me. I doubt it is necessary to come up with the optimal solution so use your common sense to solve the problem.
Without explicitly showing the problems, I will just use keywords to describe them, most of which (at least for the similar problems) can be found online and/or on Leetcode.
Keywords to the problems:classic recursion problems, permutation and combination, dynamic programming, string manipulation, array.
