Process

First, there will be a phone screen where they'll ask you questions on basic data structures to test your grasp on linked lists, trees, etc.

If you clear that, you'll be invited for a face-to-face interview, which will last for an entire day. This will consist of four technical rounds, grilling you on:

  • Data structures (linked lists, trees, hash tables)
  • Operating system concepts

Finally, if all goes well, you'll talk to a manager.

Learn all the different tricks possible in a linked list. It helps big time!

Questions
