Senior Software Developer Interview Experience - United States

April 15, 2014
Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

In-person interview with a leader in a branch office who was very compelling and makes a good case for the company, followed by technical interviews requiring 2 coding questions (first whiteboard out a solution to a problem and then code it up in your language of choice).

Time is of the essence; being close to a solution is apparently not good enough - you need to complete the exercise, so focus on the solution and not on good software engineering.

Questions

The code questions were difficult but not impossible.

One involved folding a piece of paper with numbers on it and then writing out the new order of sections; the other one was involving juggling balls with various periods in the air, deciding whether a period was repeatable, even possible (jugglable), etc.
