IMDB 2.0 - Movie DB Table Structure
Your best friend Betty thinks IMDB is too complicated and challenges you to create a simple movie web site. One page will display movies (with movie name, date it was released, and list of actors). Click on an actor and you're taken to the actor page (with actor name, birthday, bio, and list of movies actor has been in). Please outline the relational table structure of the database for this.
Six Degrees of Turkey Bacon
You've always been intrigued with the Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon game. Let's say if two actors have been in the same movie we call them 'friends' and if two actors have not been in the same movie, we say they are not 'friends'. Now choose any two actors at random -- we want to calculate the number of degrees of separation and the path between them. How do you go about this problem?
• Discuss your algorithm ideas. For each algorithm talk about the tradeoffs.
• Choose which method you think is best for solving this problem and describe how it works. You may also want to talk about what data structures you would use to implement it.
The Max
Bubble sort is O(n) at best, O(n^2) at worst, and its memory usage is O(1) . Merge sort is always O(n log n), but its memory usage is O(n). Explain which algorithm you would use to implement a function that takes an array of integers and returns the max integer in the collection, assuming that the length of the array is less than 1000. What if the array length is greater than 1000?
An Activity to Further Your Gambling Addiction
If you roll 5 standard six-sided dice, what's the probability that you get at least three 2s?
Also: you are offered the following bet: we pay you $1000 if you roll at least three 2s but you have to pay LiveRamp $200 if you don't. Would you take the bet? Why or why not?

Got the usual online test which was easy. Followed up by a 30 mins technical interview which went well, was asked two questions one is kevin bacon and the other is to find the cardinality of and int array. Immidiately got an email to schedule a 1 hour technical interview. My interview was scheduled with the VP of the company. The VP is a very friendly guy but he barely asked any questions he asked about a few behavorial and followed by 2/3 or 5/8 hops for basketball free throw and then followed by just told me to explain my answer for kevin bacon and the call ended. It was supposed to be an hour long interview and it ended in 17 mins! And got a standard mail that you have been rejected after one day. I really dont see on what basis did they reject me. I wasnt asked enough questions in the second interview to it being even called as an interview. Really dont know why are these people wasting everyone's time. I'll never be applying to this company ever again.

Online test followed by a phone screen. Same questions that others posted. 6 degree of separation. Not difficult, just BFS and asked about time and space. And better ways? I explained a AI algorithm IDS and the guy gave me a positive response on that.
I don't think anything goes serious wrong, but two days later I got a `Thank you` letter.

Applied online, and get the link to finish the online test. Everything can be find on glassdoor, nothing unexpected. After finish the online test, get the first phone screen invitation in 2~3 hours. Their response is swift. Then the second phone interview with VP. Get no feedback after that. After several days, my application status changed to "not selected" on Jobvite.
