September 4, 2023
Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

First was an IKM test, then talking with HR. After that, there were two technical interviews and a small coding task: write a function that does something with data and rewrites it for multithread purposes, with an example of use.

I passed all the interviews, but I was rejected by some managers in the approval chain.

Questions

  • Move semantics
  • Modern C++ features
  • Vector vs. array
  • Map vs. unorderedmap, collisions in the HashMap and how it resolves
  • Smart pointers: difference and usage; are they thread-safe?
  • Lambdas and capture lists
  • Multithreading: mutex, conditional variable, critical section, deadlock, livelock, std::lock
