Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied online and received an email from a recruiter for an interview. The first round was a behavioral interview. Two days later, I received another email for a technical phone interview.

Questions

Areas covered:

  • Mathematics: Pigeonhole principle, partial functions, probability, proof by induction.
  • C: Structures and unions, difference between procedural and object-oriented programming, malloc and calloc, pointers.
  • C++: Inline functions.

I performed well in all these areas, but I was rejected. I requested feedback, but the recruiter stated they had none and advised reapplying after six months.
