“The interview consists of two parts: a 45 min LC style coding and 15 mins conversation on your prior projects. The 45 min question was to build an arithmetic evaluator. For that, you have to use the Shunting Yard algorithm. It was only "+", "-", "(" and ")". I'm not sure if we would have used more operators, maybe some with precedence, if I had gone further. I had a hard time understanding the interviewer. I learned later on from Chat that you should contact your recruiter immediately if this happens.”

I felt the interviewer was in a rush and wanted to get certain signals by asking specific questions which threw me off a bit as I felt they kinda guiding the interview while i was doing it on my own pace. ”
