Software Engineer Interview Experience - Madison, Wisconsin

Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Tricky questions. They asked things that weren't related to software at all, presumably to see how you think about a problem. Unfortunately, I wasn't prepared because that's not what I expected in an interview.

Questions

If you have a digital scale, nine jars of marbles weighing 1g each, and one jar of marbles weighing 1.1 grams, and you only get to take a single weight measurement, how would you determine which jar has the heavier marbles?
