Software Engineer/Developer Interview Experience - United States
Process
HRT emailed me, asking for an hour-long screening interview.
The interview was fairly disorganized. The woman interviewing me did not seem to have much experience with interviews. She often asked me to repeat my answers to the questions; she was clearly writing down a summary of my answers for her boss.
Her tone of voice and explanations of my questions came across as slightly unprofessional.
Questions
Given a race track with 5 lanes and 25 bunnies, and no timer, how many races are required to find the top 3 fastest bunnies?
