Software Engineering Intern Interview Experience - United States

December 4, 2013
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I was contacted after speaking with a recruiter at a career fair. I then set up two separate, back-to-back interviews.

The first interviewer did not speak English well, and the second was about 30 minutes late for the interview. Therefore, I would rate the process negatively.

The elevator question was interesting, though.

Questions

The first question was about how to merge k arrays together.

The second was to design an elevator control system.

The ideal answer for the second one is actually a fairly intricate threading problem.
