Financial Applications Engineer Interview Experience - New York, New York
Process
I took an interview that lasted 35 minutes. The first 10-15 minutes were about my previous internship and the duties I performed there.
Then, I was given a simple code to write. The task involved stripping unwanted or stray characters from a string. I completed that.
After the coding task, I was asked one question: the difference between malloc() and new(). I could only recall one difference.
Two days later, I received a rejection.
