Process

Total of 3 interviews were conducted: 1 on-campus and 2 onsite, over a period of 3 weeks.

I provided my resume to the recruiter at the university career fair, and an on-campus interview was scheduled for the very next day.

One week later, I received a call for 2 onsite interviews, scheduled for 2 weeks after the call.

These 2 back-to-back interviews took place at the onsite New York office. Each interview lasted 1 hour.

Questions

On-Campus Interview 1:

  • Basic Object-Oriented Design questions, MVC pattern, basic data structure questions.
  • One programming question about strings (medium difficulty).

On-Site Interview 1:

  • Behavioral questions.
  • One programming question about printing a pattern. It started with easy statements, and after I printed the pattern, the interviewer added a few tweaks (medium difficulty).

On-Site Interview 2:

  • Behavioral questions and career interests.
  • One programming question about reading data from a file, finding specific records, and arranging them in sorted order (high difficulty).
