    This year, all the onsite questions were new ones -- job hunting is really tough this year. Hoping this helps other people who are also job hunting. Phone screen: an algorithm question. Given a bunch of meeting start and end times, output the total time spent, counting any overlaps only once. Follow-up: if there's overlap, you'd need multiple meeting rooms -- find the minimum number of meeting ro…
