Hi, For the PII data problem, what did the problem look like? Also, how did you approach correcting the incorrect method? For the second problem, was it about matching transactions to fraud events? I tried looking for patterns but couldn't find any clues. Thank you in advance!

fraud detection coding in VO is the one with the PII matching right? part 1 bug fix, part 2 implementation?

exactly that. part 1 find the bug, part 2 store PII and match fraud events. not hard but the problem statement is dense

HM round at Affirm is genuinely the wild card. did yours arrive late too?

yeah, 8 minutes late and then jumped straight into questions. no warmup.

the 100+ line starter code situation is real. they test your reading speed as much as your coding
