Process

I applied online and had a phone interview a week later. The interview was pretty straightforward.

The interviewer first asked me to rate my C++ skills on a scale of 1 to 10. Then, they asked me some questions about data structures and my projects.

I didn't perform as well as I hoped, but the interviewer was very encouraging and guided me toward the correct answers. Even though I made several mistakes, they kindly explained the solutions.

Questions

such as how to find a ring in a single linked list, what is a virtual destructor, and how to map a big number to a small one.
