Interview Report

Company : Walmart Labs

Interviewer : Jidong

The interview started at 3:30 pm through Webex. It started with usual introduction, roles
in previous projects and responsibilities.

The questions asked during the interview are as follows :

1. Execute 100,000 queries using Executorservice?
2. How did you do exception handling in previous projects ?
3. Given a 2D board and a word, find if the word exists in the grid.

The word can be constructed from letters of sequentially adjacent cell,

where "adjacent" cells are those horizontally or vertically neighboring.
The same letter cell may not be used more than once.

For example,
Given board =

[
['A','B','C','E'],
['S','F','C','S'],
['A','D','E','E']
]
word = "ABCCED", -> returns true,
word = "SEE", -> returns true,
word = "ABCB", -> returns false.

He has also provided an API to get neighbours of cell.

4. Given an array of integers, return indices of the two numbers such that they add
up to a specific target. You may assume that each input would have exactly one
solution, and you may not use the same element twice.
Given nums = [2, 7, 11, 15], target = 9,
Because nums[0] + nums[1] = 2 + 7 = 9, return [0, 1].
