Interview Prompt

We're normalizing US mailing addresses that arrive in one column as a single string like '123 Main St, Springfield, IL 62704'. Pull the street, city, state, and zip into their own fields on a dict.

Summary

One string hides a street, a city, a state, and a zip.

How This Interview Works

  1. Read the vague prompt (just like a real interview)
  2. Ask clarifying questions to the AI interviewer
  3. Write and run your Python against test cases
  4. Answer the interviewer's follow-up questions, then get a hire or no-hire decision
