This question evaluates proficiency in string parsing, pattern validation, and algorithmic correctness, covering abbreviation interpretation and bracket balancing while requiring careful handling of edge cases and input constraints.
Coding & AlgorithmsTechnical Screen - MicrosoftMediumSite Reliability EngineerFind where two singly linked lists merge, given each as a sequence of node ids
Coding practice question: two singly linked lists that may merge into a shared tail are given as sequences of node ids, and you must return the id of the node where they first meet, or -1. It tests reasoning about linked list structure, linear-time traversal, and edge cases such as no shared node or one list being the other's tail.
Coding & AlgorithmsOnsite - WaymoMediumSite Reliability EngineerDetermine Complete Interval Coverage
This question evaluates understanding of interval coverage, streaming or online algorithms, and data structures for maintaining dynamic unions of intervals as points arrive.
Coding & AlgorithmsTechnical Screen - WaymoMediumSite Reliability EngineerIs the Segment From 0 to 50 Fully Contaminated After Each Landing Point?
Points land one at a time on the segment from 0 to 50, each contaminating an interval of length 1 around it; after each landing, report whether the whole segment is contaminated. Tests interval union maintenance, exact boundary handling and efficient updates.
