You do not need to finish every single technical problem they give you in order to receive an offer. I received a coding sample and a total of 6 technical interviews. I did not complete the coding sample, the design problem, and 3 of the other technical problems. I used Cracking the Coding Interview book to begin my review of data structures and algorithms. From there, practice coding on LeetCode. Begin with the Easy questions. Once you’re more familiar and comfortable, try the Medium problems. You’ll most likely receive Medium over Hard questions since you only have 45 minutes per interview. The concepts I utilized the most during my interviews were object-oriented design, dictionaries/hash tables, and sets.

Given a 2 dimensional grid (represented as a 2D array) that had an area filled in with a certain color, find the perimeter, or border length, of that area. So if the area was a 2 by 2 square, the border length would be 8. Constraint: Ignore other colors filled in the grid and only count consider the elements around a starting point. Ignore outliers

Study up on your algorithms and data structures. Make sure you're comfortable with using common data structures and algorithms to solve more specific problems, but also be prepared to answer questions with no connection to any previously learned tricks. You should be able to come up with time complexities as easily as breathing. For everything you write, you have to be able to explain your thinking. In some cases, you will be asked to verbally articulate a complete solution before writing any code at all. In general, what they seem to be looking for is observable proof of your problem solving ability in real time. You don't need a freakishly high IQ or vast knowledge base of CS information to succeed, though I imagine that would help. To prepare, sites like leetcode seem to work fine, but in my opinion they put way to much emphasis on test cases and actually running code to be used for interview preparation. I often found that I would work a problem until I'd thought of the solution, then abandon it after a few minutes of trying to debug some edge case that wasn't working. This kind of behavior is obviously inappropriate on the job, but it helped me focus on the conceptual problem solving skills needed for the interviews.
