The link to the Reddit discussion: <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/lhkhec/distributed_sorting_google_interview_question/" rel="nofollow">https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/lhkhec/distrib...</a><p>As you would expect, the discussion opened with the unrealism of tech interviews. I agree that treating interviews as a form of SAT exam, where you have to study for, is unrealistic. However, I wonder if the SV companies have some solid HR data to back this style of interviews, and their success.<p>Any insiders here?
