Interview Prompt

Our data quality pipeline flags identifier strings with symmetrical patterns that often indicate copy-paste errors. Write a function called longest_palindrome that returns the longest palindromic substring. If there are ties, return the one starting earliest.

How This Interview Works

  1. Read the vague prompt (just like a real interview)
  2. Ask clarifying questions to the AI interviewer
  3. Write your python solution with real code execution
  4. Get instant feedback and a hire/no-hire decision
