Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My super day had three back-to-back one-hour interviews, and it moved fast enough that I had to reset my thinking constantly.

The second round was coding with data-structure heavy work. I packaged two arrays into a data structure I chose, traversed it to find elements that met certain conditions, and then handled some simpler follow-on manipulations. The final round was behavioral, and it felt more like the interviewer took notes and then asked general follow-ups rather than digging deep
