Software Engineer Intern Interview Experience - Madison, Wisconsin
Process
Applied at my college career fair. Was called for an HR/Tech interview on the phone after about a week.
Questions were about past projects, favorite projects, and why Epic.
After that, I was called onsite for a 5-6 hour interview/test marathon.
There were interviews on case studies, HR interviews, 1-to-1s with an employee, and a project presentation. Tests were on programming languages, maths, and English.
Questions
Consider the cell phone keypad. Given numbers xyz, write a program to enumerate all possible strings that could have been produced.
