The interview process consisted of a technical round focused on C/C++ fundamentals and problem-solving. It began with conceptual questions on C/C++ to test my understanding of language features. Then, I was given two DSA problems. The first was to detect a loop in a linked list, which I solved using Floyd’s Cycle Detection Algorithm. The second was to reverse the words in a string, where I explained and implemented an efficient in-place solution. I discussed my approach, wrote clean code, and analyzed the time and space complexity for both problems. The interviewer encouraged clarity of thought and problem-solving skills.
