I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Culmination Bio in July 2023
Interview
They scheduled a 30-min intro chat with the VP of Artificial Intelligence that became a live coding challenge. I suspected they modify the type of initial chat based on how the resume is perceived. The coding session was more of a collaborative pair programming session.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Write a function that reverses a string. The input string is given as an array of characters s. You must do this by modifying the input array in-place with O(1) extra memory. Example 1: Input: s = ["h","e","l","l","o"] Output: ["o","l","l","e","h"] Example 2: Input: s = ["H","a","n","n","a","h"] Output: ["h","a","n","n","a","H"] Constraints: 1 <= s.length <= 10**5 s[i] is a printable ascii character.
