Process
4 rounds:
They ask for a resume and SAT scores at career fairs.
Phone interview: sometimes very technical or tricky, sometimes very easy. It all depends on who you get. Some interviewers are prone to ask very tough logic puzzle type questions, so be ready.
Testing at a 3rd party location or on site. Combination of math/logic/programming. There will be tough programming challenges, so come ready to think.
On-site interview. See the company and the crazy campus and an interview with HR. My understanding is that if you make it this far, they definitely want you.
Questions
9 bottles of wine and one is poison. How can you conclusively figure out which is poison with only 2 rats to test with and only 2 rounds of testing?
