I recently had the pleasure of interviewing with Coursera. A recruiter reached out to me and asked me to apply.

I then received the HackerRank link, which included three multiple-choice questions and one coding question.

After that, I scheduled the technical interview with an engineer. The technical interview went great and consisted of three parts, though I only had time to complete the first.

The problem statement asked me to design a course system in the coding language of my choice. It was a class with four functions, and I was also provided with a diagram depicting this course system.

The engineer interviewing me was very professional and respectful. At the end, I was able to ask them questions.

I am still waiting for their response and will update this review once I receive the decision.

Disclaimer: This is the best of my recollection, so I apologize if it's inaccurate.

Design a course system with the following functions:

• getAssignmentID(integer assignmentID): Here, you create the assignment ID and check if it already exists. If it does, return an error message.
• getStudentID(integer studentID): Here, you create the student ID and check if it already exists. If it does, return an error message.
• assignStudentGrade(integer studentID, integer assignmentID, float gradeNumber): Here, you assign the grade for the student's assignment. The grade is in the range of 0-100.
• getAverageGrade(integer studentID): Return the average grade for the given student ID. This is calculated using all of the assignments that student had.
