Intercontinental Exchange interview questions

Most people would often say that the first impression is very important, this is infact true and works both ways. I came to realise this after my interview with Intercontinental Exchange in London. As a Londoner, most people I come across goes on minding their own business and would not even dare to smile or look at you, it may sound harsh but it's the truth. Whilst I was waiting at the reception, everyone that walked past me gave me a smile and I even received a compliment. (ps. I didn't know that Jimmy Choo ICE and a hint of Tom Ford Neroli Portofino could spark a scental explosion!) As my interview was running late, I was starting to get nervous whilst trying to remember everything about ICE and the technical questions they may ask. Suddenly, I recalled the compliment that I received 15 minutes ago, this made me feel 100x better, more confident and less nervous. The interview must have went on for at least two hours, but it felt as if I was there for an hour. The questions were challenging but at the same time, I never felt so relaxed and confident, I was enjoying it. It was such a pleasure to meet the team (Mentor, Manny, Brid and Robert) and learning more about ICE Exchange, Data Services and Tech Stack. My overall experience was an absolute 10/10. Lastly, I couldn't be thankful enough to Sam and Patrick from Montpellier Resourcing for their hardwork, encouragement and support. Thank you for having me ICE. Becoming a part of your company and team would be a dream come true! Remember... the first impression goes both ways! All the best, Beeraj

I had read the bad reviews but had to experience myself to truly believe it. For the in-person java test, they asked question about inserting a node in a BST. Here is the problem, I provided a working iterative solution but the person knew only recursive and to my horror he said the only way it would work is through recursive. The irony is, I have been working with complex BST traversal at work recently so this question was luckily trivial but was dumb-founded to not even able to explain or demonstrate the solution. There were other questions and they were all standard ones but subjective.
