Journey
To be honest, I didn’t like DSA very much initially, so in my early years of college I didn’t focus on it much. However, sooner or later I realized its importance in the tech industry—DSA is essential for cracking any tech job. All you need to do is master different DSA patterns and stay consistent.
Application story
I applied through the campus portal as the company came to our campus. The round one had a coding questions and some MCQs with topics like OOPS, OS, DBMS etc. Then three more rounds were held.
Why selected/rejected for the role?
I was selected till last round of interview and I was the last person in the queue, so while my interview was going on, the company announced the results, I say it's just a bad luck otherwise I would have easily made it.

You're given a string 'S' consisting of "{", "}", "(", ")", "[" and "]" .


Return true if the given string 'S' is balanced, else return false.


For example:
'S' = "{}()".

There is always an opening brace before a closing brace i.e. '{' before '}', '(' before ').
So the 'S' is Balanced.
Problem approach

I took my time to think about the problem, then prepared my strategy and dry run the test cases and wrote the solution on the screen. The solution was not good but running all cases.

The round was a face to face round with a SDE 2 engineer of same company. He first started with an easy DSA question which I need to solve in JavaScript and then optimise it. He then got to some oops concepts and then some other project explanation and all.

You are given a string 'str' of length 'N'.


Your task is to reverse the original string word by word.


There can be multiple spaces between two words and there can be leading or trailing spaces but in the output reversed string you need to put a single space between two words, and your reversed string should not contain leading or trailing spaces.


Example :
If the given input string is "Welcome to Coding Ninjas", then you should return "Ninjas Coding to Welcome" as the reversed string has only a single space between two words and there is no leading or trailing space.
Problem approach

Tip 1: Take your time and solve firstly with brute force, don't directly give optimised solution.
Tip 2: Be confident in front the interviewer, don't show him your nervousness.
Tip 3: Be thorough with OOPs and OS concepts.
