Software Engineer Internship Interview Experience

Neutral ExperienceNo Offer
Process
The interviewer first went over my resume and asked some questions related to it. Then, they asked about Java/C language concepts, such as:
- What is polymorphism?
- What is a virtual function?
- What is the difference between a compile-time error and a run-time error?
Finally, they gave me a simple coding question.
Questions
What's a virtual function? I haven't learned that yet.

Senior Software Engineer • Current Employee
Bellevue, Washington, United States
May 14, 2017
Pros: Lots of employee perks.
Strong benefits.
Decent work/life balance.
Cons: Especially in an engineering role, it's far better to work under a "brand" or other profit center. While the pressure may be a bit higher, you will get more funding sooner for improvements, and technical leadership is more likely to test ideas.
This is considerably less true within IT, eCP, and other shared services.
