Process
Two-round interview. Some basic knowledge of C++ was required, especially C++11. The interviewer was really arrogant. There were some algorithm questions, which required writing the code in a Google Doc. However, the interviewer didn't care about the thinking process. They only cared whether the code could be executed.
Questions
New features in C++11
Read code and tell what happened when the code is running.
