Interview preparation journey

Journey
When I joined college, I was unaware of this Data Structure and Algorithm, which made my journey to getting an internship way more complicated. From that point, I started doing questions on Code Studio. I solved a variety of questions covering every topic of DSA, which helped me prepare for job interviews.
Application story
I applied through an online contest in which all students across India were eligible to participate.
Why selected/rejected for the role?
I was rejected because I did not have a decent rank on coding platforms. Moreover, I was not able to optimize the solution to a coding problem in the final interview.
Preparation
Duration: 4 months
Topics: Data Structures, Pointers, OOPS, System Design, Algorithms, Dynamic Programming

You have been given a Binary Tree of 'N' nodes where the nodes have integer values and three integers 'N1', 'N2', and 'N3'. Find the LCA(Lowest Common Ancestor) of the three nodes represented by the given three('N1', 'N2', 'N3') integer values in the Binary Tree.

For example:

For the given binary tree: the LCA of (7,8,10) is 1
Note:
All of the node values of the binary tree will be unique.

N1, N2, and N3  will always exist in the binary tree.

You have been given an array/list 'ARR' consisting of 'N' integers. Your task is to find the majority element in the array. If there is no majority element present, print -1.

Note:
A majority element is an element that occurs more than floor('N' / 2) times in the array.
Problem approach

In the first test case, floor(N/3) = floor(7/3) is equal to 2, and 2 occurs 3 times which is strictly more than N/3. No other element occurs more than 2 times.

You have been given a linked list where each node has a single character. You have also been given a string 'STR'.

You have to remove all the occurrences of string STR from the linked list.

Note:
1. Start checking from the end of the linked list and not from the beginning. For example, if the linked list is ( a, b, a ,b, a)  and the string is equal to “aba” , then the answer should be (a b), not (b a).

2. After removing an occurrence check again for new formations.
Problem approach

As this was a String question, I used the concept of String Builder of java as it is the easiest way to deal with strings.
