This is a demo case file: a realistic example written from commonly known interview formats, not a real candidate's interview experience.

Questions asked

  1. Estimate the probability of rolling doubles twice in a row with two dice.
  2. Walk me through how you would price a simple call option intuitively.
  3. Write a function to detect whether a linked list contains a cycle.

What to expect

Fast-paced and no calculator. Interviewer mostly stayed quiet while I worked through problems on paper, then asked me to explain my reasoning at the end rather than interrupting mid-thought.
