Engineer Phone Call
Onsite Interview
Tell me about a time that you resolved a technical disagreement with a team member
Describe a time that you needed to acquire information from someone who was not very responsive—how did you handle it?
Being able to talk about your past experiences and what you learned from them give your interviewer a better sense of your work style
Candidates who do not have any questions to ask their interviewer are often viewed as uninterested, so spend some time before your interview thinking of a few topics that pique your interest and would like to learn more about from your interviewer.
The biggest thing to remember here is to communicate with your interviewer.
Although this may seem self-evident, thinking out loud while you work through a problem gives your interviewer insight into your thought process. Talk about the approach you are taking and any trade-offs you can identify. If you arrive at a point where you have to choose between two different data structures, explain why you chose the one you did.
After the Interview
After both a phone screen and an in-person interview, it is a good idea to send a note thanking the interviewer for their time. You can also send this to the recruiter you are working with if you do not have the interviewer’s contact information.
If the team you interviewed with decided not extend an offer, you can ask the recruiter for advice about what you can do better next time or if there are any other open opportunities that might be a better fit.

Write a function that takes a list of "ranges" and returns a list of the minimum number of "ranges" by combining overlapping "ranges".
Imagine you are an Uber driver who begins in the middle spot of an n by n matrix. Write a code that allows you to pick up the most riders in your immediate vicinity (e.g. spots directly adjacent to your location) until all surrounding spots are 0. You can only move up, right, left or down.
Example: [0, 5, 3], [2, 6, 9], [0, 1, 0]
