Question 1
For the phone screen interview, they asked me questions on the diameter of a binary tree and the number of islands in a matrix.
smooth and the interviewer was nice. He was not pushy for me to get results right away and guided me whenever is needed. The overall feeling was good. I got asked two questions and not sure if there were supposed to be the third one.
