During my past interviews (online or virtual on-site), lots of code questions had very long paragram to read, some are more than half the screen. I got this situation twice on Amazon OA, once in virutal onsite with amazon, and once in SAP OA. I felt frustrated when reading these long texts, because I was kind of blank in my head after reading it 1 or 2 times. Given the time presure, how do you better handle this situations? and are there any ways I can improve myselfοΌ #interview #algorthim #amazon #engineering #software #swe
Understanding a question is half solution. You donβt need to rush through.
Just gotta get good at it. Look for the key points only and ignore all of the fluff. Try to determine the pattern on your first read through then get specifics on second read through
