Process
Applied on the IBM website for various intern positions. Got a phone interview a few weeks later. The interview had mostly technical questions, basic programming questions, OO questions, concurrency-related questions, etc., and a few personal questions, i.e., "Tell me about yourself," "What are your strengths?" "What are your weaknesses?"
Questions
Describe concurrency constructs in C.
