Recent

xsharing my recent leetcode post here: Got an offer for E5 recently and wanted to share out some high fequency questions that I've found useful to practice. There's a couple things I look for when practicing problems, mainly: 1. It should hit some areas in which I'm weak. 2. It should be something that's asked recently or else there's not much of a point. 3. I try to avoid problems where there's a massive jump in logic that's needed to solve it(like brainteasers) So here's the questions I found helpful to practice that met those criteria: 1. K-th largest number variations link I've seen a few companies asking variations of this recently so it's worth studying. 2. LRU and LFU cache link Same as the one above these tend to come up a lot with slight twists 3. Binary Tree Right Side View link I've seen a lot of companies, but especially meta ask some type of binary tree traversal variant and I think this one is a good variant to practice and comes up a lot. 4. Dot product of subsequences link I like this problem because the intuition is not too difficult and it's a great way to practice dynamic programming implementation 5. Company specific problems/variations like Shortest Substring with Alphabet link I wasn't able to find it on leetcode but it seems to be asked very frequently, I was able to find it on this website which seems to have a small list of very recent questions, so it's worth practicing My final tips for Meta is timing myself. Like people have mentioned in this community a lot, you usually need to solve 2 questions per round and at more senior levels that can even include Hards. So I've been timing myself to try and finish medium level questions in under 15 mins. This community has helped me a lot and I hope this post helps someone else out.
