Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Contacted via Recruiter.

Asked if I preferred SDET or Test Engineer. I chose Test Engineer as I had more of a QA background.

This was followed by a phone interview on a date I selected. I chose a date two weeks after the day the recruiter called me for the phone interview.

Questions

Write test cases for widgets that pop out when you perform a Google Search. For example, tan x or converting 60kgs to pounds. You don't have to necessarily go into details of individual widget testing, but rather more general scenarios testing this functionality of invoking widgets via the search toolbar.

Given a linked list and a value k, find the kth element from the last.
