Software Engineer Interview Experience

March 1, 2017
Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Applied online and was contacted by a recruiter within a week. A Codepad was used for the phone screen, and you were able to run the code. I was not able to hear the interviewer clearly, nor could the interviewer hear me, so I just wrote the code.

Questions

Q1. Check if a word is a palindrome.

Q2. Continuation of Q1: Find all pairs of words in a list that, when concatenated, form a palindrome.
