Interview preparation journey

Journey
I realised that progress comes from small, consistent efforts. I made it a habit to learn something every day, apply it through hands-on practice, and reflect on my mistakes. This approach helped me gradually build confidence and improve my problem-solving skills. I also learned the importance of patience—real growth doesn’t happen overnight. Another important part of my journey was learning how to handle pressure and stay calm during challenges. Instead of aiming for perfection, I focused on clarity of thought and structured thinking. This mindset helped me perform better and remain confident throughout the interview process. Overall, this journey taught me that consistency, curiosity, and self-belief matter more than speed. Anyone starting from the basics can achieve their goals with the right approach, discipline, and willingness to keep learning. I hope this encourages others to trust the process and stay committed to their growth.
Application story
I applied for the role through the company’s official careers portal after coming across the opportunity online. The application process was straightforward and well-structured, beginning with résumé shortlisting followed by a series of evaluation rounds. Communication throughout the process was clear, and each stage was scheduled in advance. Overall, the journey was smooth and transparent, providing sufficient time to prepare and understand expectations before the interview.

You are given two strings 'A' and 'B' of words. Your task is to find out the most frequent and lexicographically smallest word in string 'A', which is not present in string 'B'. If no such word is present in 'A', then return -1.

Note:

1. A word is a sequence of one or more lowercase characters.

2. Words are separated by a single whitespace character.
Example:
For the given string 'A' = “coding ninjas coding ninjas” and 'B' = “data structures and algorithms”, so both the word 'coding' and 'ninjas' are not present in string 'B' and occur two times each, but the word “coding” is lexicographically smaller than the word “ninjas”. So the answer is “coding”.
