If user types any keyword in search bar, they wanted to know if (and how) the result can be stored on the browser and re-used if same keyword is typed again.
Also, if some keyword is subset of another (sunday is subset of sun), can the API structure be designed in such a way that, if user searches for sun and gets result and then searched for sunday; can the result for sunday be extracted out of result from sun (which might already be stored somewhere).
They wanted to discuss the possible approaches, strategy etc for the same.
Round 5 (array question)
It was more of standard DS and Algo question and solution. I think, they wanted to check my understanding of DS and Algo.
Most of bigger companies have this kind of rounds. Questions on graph algo like find islands in sea, BFS, DFS etc were asked in many companies.
I am aware that they have these questions but honestly, this is something they need to have a better way to assess their candidates. DS and Algo should never be a factor to reject a frontend candidate!
I do not see backend interviews where they ask nth-child, positioning, flex, grid, etc.
