Software Engineer Internship Interview Experience - Hong Kong

June 1, 2026
Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied online. The process took 3 weeks.

The programming test was conducted on CoderPad using my preferred programming language. There were two interviewers present:

  • A lead interviewer who guided the session
  • A second interviewer who observed and evaluated my performance

The main focus of the interview was not on syntax accuracy or whether the code could be executed perfectly on the spot, but rather on how to design structured, clean, and optimized solutions. Minor syntax mistakes or forgetting the exact name of a function were generally acceptable, as long as the intended functionality and approach were clearly explained.

Questions

The interview questions mainly focused on how I approached problem-solving.

If I made a mistake or proposed a suboptimal solution, the interviewers would usually ask guiding questions to help me identify the issue and improve the solution on my own, rather than directly pointing out the answer.
