Interview Prompt
A round-robin scheduler keeps its consumers in a fixed order and advances the assignment by `shift` slots each cycle so the load spreads evenly down the line. Given the `consumers` list and a `shift`, return the order rotated by `shift`.
Summary
Load has to keep moving. Pass it down the line.
How This Interview Works
- Read the vague prompt (just like a real interview)
- Ask clarifying questions to the AI interviewer
- Write and run your Python against test cases
- Answer the interviewer's follow-up questions, then get a hire or no-hire decision
