Sr. Software Engineer Interview Experience - Mountain View, California

February 1, 2020
Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

The recruiter reached out to me regarding an opportunity at Intuit.

He had a busy schedule, so I had to wait for the recruiter call to be scheduled.

During the call with the recruiter, he went over my current experience and asked some good questions about the software development process.

I got my phone interview scheduled with an engineer.

During the interview, the engineer went over his/her current role and asked me to give a brief overview of my projects and applications I worked on.

The last 30 minutes were dedicated to implementation.

Questions

Your assignment is to implement a Hospital class which admits patients into a hospital. The Hospital class has a single public method, admitOne, which simply prints the name of the patient admitted into the hospital and a timestamp of when he or she was admitted, based on the requirements described below.

Requirements:

  • Implement the admitOne method of the Hospital interface. admitOne should print a log message with a timestamp and the name of the patient when that patient is finally admitted into the Hospital.
  • Because there is only one receptionist, you can only admit one patient into the hospital every 5 seconds. For example, if admitOne is called three times (in parallel), it should take approximately 10 seconds for all three people to be admitted into the hospital (patient 1 admitted at T-0, patient 2 admitted at T-5, and patient 3 admitted at T-10).
  • Admittance to the hospital should be first-come-first-serve. In other words, patients should be admitted in the same order that admitOne was called in.
  • Don't worry too much about multi-threading.
