Question 1
I had a technical interview where I was asked to solve the classic 'Climbing Stairs' problem (LeetCode #70), which is a dynamic programming question based on the Fibonacci sequence.
One HR interview, then two problem-solving interviews (beginer level) on HackerRank. You can choose the best programming language for you to use in solving problems. You should think out loud to enable your interviewer to understand how you would think to solve the problem.
