Software Engineering Interview Experience - Providence, Rhode Island
Process
They sent me a HackerRank coding question. The HackerRank coding question was fairly basic and didn't require any knowledge of algorithms to solve.
After I completed it, they got back to me within a few days, and I had an initial phone screening interview. The question was fairly basic, about server stuff mainly, and required some knowledge about problems that large companies would face.
Questions
Q: Write a server-side function to record the number of hits a page has, and another function to return the number of hits in the last 5 minutes.
