What you need
- A Codeforces profile is a must.
- Strong understanding of common data structures and algorithms.
- Ability to reason carefully about constraints, complexity, edge cases, and correctness.
- Experience debugging unfamiliar code or solving technically ambiguous problems.
Nice to have
- A public or otherwise verifiable Codeforces profile demonstrating meaningful competitive-programming experience.
