Question 1
Asked me to explain pseudocode for following question:
You have a string that is made of 'AM' substring. It can only be expended in 2 ways: 'AMAM', 'AAMM'. Now the 4 letter string can be expanded in 5 ways by inserting 'AM' anywhere in the string. If given a long string, how to check if it is valid and following the above rules
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Optum (Eden Prairie, MN) in Oct 2022
Interview
The interviewing experience for their internship, consisted of a video-recorded interview and a virtual zoom interview. Mostly behavioral questions with a few questions about past technical work on your resume. The interview was with a real engineer at the company, not an HR person.

Question 1
Is there a situation in that you were not given enough information to complete a project? If so explain what you did to overcome it.
There was a phone screening and then a remote interview. Remote interview just asked for the basics, fundamentals of computer science, and any related experiences. It was a long friendly conversation.
