Round 1: Technical Interview

The first interview was held for 35-40 minutes and it was an offline round. The interview started with an introduction and then the interviewer gave me a DSA question.
Question 1 was to implement a LRU Cache and calculate the number of cache hits and cache misses. A similar problem can be found on the internet. I was able to solve the problem within 10 minutes and write the pseudo code for the same.
The second question was LeetCode Hard(Falling Squares). The optimal solution involved the use of Segment Trees with Lazy Propagation. I was able to come up with a better solution but was not able to reach the most optimal solution.
Eventually, the interview ended.
