Process

I applied to a manager, and they arranged for a recruiter and an engineer to interview me. I just went on-site for the interview.

It involved some random algorithm questions (more like brain teasers) and basic database questions. The interview wasn't very hard, and I received an offer.

The whole process lasted an afternoon, around 5 hours. They provided some free food during the interview.

Questions

Basic C++ questions, such as the difference between C++ and Java.

Some brain teasers, like the 25 horses problem.

Database questions, such as what GROUP BY does.
