• Obstacles: During my first online interview, my mind went blank, and I couldn't come up with any ideas to solve the problem. As a result, I was unable to solve the question.

Post-Interview Reflections:

• Evaluator Feedback:That's some valuable feedback! Focusing on coding regularly and challenging yourself with a daily problem-solving practice can really boost your skills. Keep it up!
• Suggestions for Improvement: - Learn a new concept every day - Try to solve coding problems regularly - Sharpen skills day by day - Never give up when a question is not solved.

Closing Note:

• It was my first experience. Don't fear, just chill and attend to the question. Read the question carefully. Before coding, think about how to solve it by reading the question more clearly. Don't panic, just solve it. Every developer starts from `print("hello world")`. Build day by day to solve coding problems. Never give up. Consistency is the key.
