Interview Prompt

You're rolling up a table of activity dates (ISO 'YYYY-MM-DD' strings, in no particular order) into a weekly view, with weeks counted from the earliest date. Return each week's number mapped to the dates that fell in it.

Summary

Timestamps in buckets.

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
