Spoke to the recruiter once on the phone who set up a technical phone screen. The recruiter took forever to set up the phone screen - about 15 days. The phone screen involved writing code on shared code editor - collabedit.com. The interviewer called me and immediately jumped into the coding problem without much of a discussion

Pregunta 1
Two players play a game. In this game, there are two piles of identical stones. The number of stones in first pile is A and the number of stones in second pile is B. There is also a positive integer constant K which is a parameter to the game. It stays fixed throughout the game. The players alternate taking turns. When a player's turn comes, that player first selects a pile and then picks any number of stones from that pile - he has to pick at least 1 stone and cannot pick more than K stones. The person who picks the last stone loses.
Write a method to determine if player 1 has a winning strategy given A, B & K - assume both players play optimally.
Good experience not the best outcome. Was 1000% sure I completed all coding and sys design but was told didn't get enough signal for the competency round. Overall very organized but not very satisfied with the response.

Horrible, el entrevistador ni entendia el ejercicio y queria que lo hiciera a su manera. Tardamos 30 minutos en entender el ejercicio porque el ni lo entendia. Pude hacerlo a mi entendimiento, entonces cada cosa que hacia no me cuestionaba, literal me decia que estaba incorrecto
The interview process was well-structured and included an initial recruiter screen, followed by technical rounds focused on data structures, problem-solving, and system design fundamentals. Interviewers were professional and communicative throughout. Although I wasn’t selected for the role, the experience was positive and provided helpful insight into areas for further growth.
