Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience

February 24, 2017
Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Not much to it. The recruiter was very unresponsive, but eventually scheduled my interview.

I was supposed to be interviewed by a Sr. Engineer, who was shadowed by a Jr. Dev. However, only the Jr. Engineer showed up to the call.

His interviewing style was rather dry, and he didn't engage in much conversation.

Questions

Given a nested list of integers, returns the sum of all integers in the list weighted by their depth.

For example, given the list {{1,1},2,{1,1}}, the function should return 10 (four 1's at depth 2, one 2 at depth 1).
