Software Engineer (Internship) Interview Experience - Saint Louis, Missouri

September 1, 2018
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Applied at career fair and given interview the next day. It was pretty sketchy. I submitted my resume to them at the career fair around 5 pm. At 11 pm that same night, they texted me asking me to come in for an interview the next day. The text message was very informal. I interviewed the next day at my university. The interview was 1-on-1 and lasted 25 minutes.

He couldn't find my resume, so he went straight into the interview questions. It was one logic question and one technical question.

Questions

You’ve got someone working for you for seven days and a gold bar to pay them. You must pay the worker for their work at the end of every day. If you are only allowed to make two breaks in the gold bar, how do you pay your worker? (Assuming equal amount of work is done during each day thus requiring equal amount of pay for each day)

How would you determine if there a string was a palindrome? Write out a function to do this? Also determine its efficiency.
