Process

After completing an online assessment test, I was invited for a phone interview.

All questions were technical.

The interviewer began with simple C++ questions, such as:

  • What does a copy constructor do?
  • What is polymorphism?
  • What is overloading?

And finished with more advanced questions about interprocess communication and the STL.

The chat over the phone took about 30 minutes and was very friendly.

Questions

What is 'union'?

What is a 'race condition'?
