Q1- Merge overlapping intervals. I was able to solve it in O(nlogn) time, and constant space complexity. Q2- Given a transactions table, containing following columns: id, amount, from_acc, to_acc, created_ts, last_updated_ts. Create EOD balance view: account_id, date, eod_balance I didn't remember exact syntax for writing the query, so I told him my approach, and I told him I'll need to google exact syntax. 3. Clone a graph. I discussed the approach, and interviewer told me idea is correct, and/ to go ahead with my implementation. But I did dfs instead of bfs for cloning. And interviewer didn't give me any hints. Time ran out so I wasn't able to test out this solution. If interviewer hadn't wasted 10 mins at the start of interview, or compensated for wasted time, I would have corrected this solution

Some IT departments attempt to keep their vendors from talking to line of business people. Tell me about a time you had to manage a situation where the IT department wanted to restrict access to the end-users and how you overcame that.
