Interview

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is the difference between a binary tree and a binary search tree?
They asked basic questions about technical stuff, then another purely technical round where I was given one main coding problem, followed by 4 follow-up questions/variations based on the initial problem.
First stage was the OA and workstyles assessment. After getting through it I faced the phone screen interview and I didn't get through it. The coding question was a pretty standard product categorisation coding problem
