Online Coding Challenge
The online coding challenge consisted of two questions that had to be solved in 90 minutes. The questions were based on arrays and strings. The first question was to find the longest common prefix of an array of strings. The second question was to check if a string is a valid palindrome, ignoring case and punctuation. The questions were not very hard, but they required some careful thinking and edge-case handling. I used JavaScript as my programming language and passed all the test cases for both questions. I received an email the next day saying that I qualified for the phone interview round.
