What is the difference between a bjt and a mosfet? Bjt has "leakage current" in the gate, however I said mosfet has infinite gate resistance and bjt has rpi as the base resistance, this was considered incorrect. What does this digital circuit do? It was a DFF with Q* plugged into D, and Q is output. It was a frequency divide by two system. How to make sure voltage from first system gets to second system? First system is plugged into base of bjt and collector is plugged into second system. The answer was to add a pull up resistance which is vdd in series with resistor, connected to collector. I gave plenty of working answers, but none were considered correct.

Given a complete binary tree, perform the following spiral traversal of the tree print left most nodes on each level from top to bottom print all nodes on the bottom-most level from left to right print right-most nodes on each level from bottom to top every node is to be visited only once, perform this iteration until the whole tree is traversed

1. Programming round - practical programming questions 2. behavior round - standard behavior round questions 3. Solo integration - API development and integrating with FE using vanilla JS or JS library. 4. Extending integration with pair programming - Like previous round, you will pair program to add a new feature. 5. Technical design - given a simple screen you need to design abstract model. Catch: Abstract so abstract and model is so abstract, it's not your typical system design round. It's a hit or miss.
