Process

Phone Interview

The interviewer was very nice and patient.

Like everyone else, I was asked to log in to their server via SSH and finish some coding problems. In addition to the problems themselves, I was also asked some questions about the C language and computer systems.

Questions

The problems are almost the same as what others have posted here, but to answer them well, you'll have to be very familiar with C (yes, C, not C++), command-line debugging, man pages, and working with editors like Vim or Emacs.
