Process

I had two on-campus interviews that mainly consisted of logic questions and pseudocode questions.

Following these, I was flown to New York for an on-site interview that consisted of two back-to-back 1:1 interviews.

The first was with a hiring manager, and the second was with an HR representative.

I was asked additional logic questions and another pseudocode question.

Overall, they seemed much more interested in logic questions than in getting to know me. I was asked very few behavioral or other types of questions.

Questions

Using a computer programming script, how would you solve for the square root of an integer that was input by the program user?

Given 8 pennies, 7 of which weigh the same, and one of which is slightly heavier than all the others, state the minimum number of times you could use a balance scale to determine which penny was the heavier one.
