Additional Notes
- The introduction and Leadership Principles (LP) discussion took 30 minutes in each round.
- The interviewer typically asked one LP question, but if time allowed and responses were strong, they would ask a second question until the 30-minute mark.
- The candidate found the experience positive overall, despite struggling to complete coding tasks within the time limit.
- The questions were combinations of different LeetCode problems, making them tricky and requiring recognition of blended questions.
- All LP answers need to be unique, and candidates should prepare multiple scenarios.
Hope this helps in any way - best of luck!
