Airbnb - finally got the offer
Replies (6)
did the cross-functional round feel like a real values screen or more checkbox BQ?
real screen. they pushed back on my answers and asked follow-ups. not checkbox at all
had the split stay problem too. any tips on the DFS memoization approach?
draw out the recursion tree first. key insight is you can repeat bookings so it's not a standard path problem
Noob question but is the split stay problem this one? https://www.hack2hire.com/companies/airbnb/coding-questions/6a0226da2608e589a944a228/practice?questionId=6a0226e62608e589a944a229
chat system with schema focus is new info. most prep resources focus on architecture not data model. thanks for this
4 days to offer is fast. did they give you a deadline to respond?
which projects did you deep dive on? any specific domain they care about more than others?
both were backend distributed systems. not sure they care about domain, more about depth of understanding
