Interview
So, I had around 3 rounds of interviews, first was the Telephonic call, had a google meet with the recruiter who reached out to me and he just made sure I have no backlogs and I have done what I mentioned on my resume. It was around 15 minutes. Second was technical round 1, where I was asked to code a sliding window problem, and the few follow up questions for that problem and then since we were running out of time I was asked to tell me approach for another problem which I described using hash, Third round included a trees question along with followup questions which. Both technical rounds lasted 45 mins

Question 1
Lowest Common Ancestor(LCA) Problem on leetcode(a little modified version)
It was good. The interviewer was very supportive. I asked questions about the problem I didn't understand. Overall it was a good experience. Though i didn't get the offer, the interview was a good experience
Two 45-min technical interviews, 15 mins gap between. Medium level of leetcode problems. Google has type of problems with levels. You start with one problem, then it develops. I think this is good practice, because it kinda breaks down the huge problem.
