I met a Bloomberg employee at a University at Buffalo career fair.
The interviewer asked:
"Which is your favorite language?"
My response was: "C."
Then, they asked: "What is the difference between int and int* memory allocations?"
I answered: "One is allocated on the stack and the other on the heap."
One more question was:
c void foo() { foo(); }
int main() { foo(); return 0; }
"What does this do?"
He seemed satisfied and scheduled an interview. (Interview not yet completed.)
