      Interview

      Start with a general self-introduction and ask the interviewer questions about your resume to establish context. Then, be prepared to solve a LeetCode medium-to-hard level problem involving ordering numbers using a structured binary search tree. The solution should be implemented efficiently, with a minimum time complexity of O(n log n). Demonstrating clear logic and solid coding skills during this problem will be essential.
