Applications Support Engineer Interview Experience

Process

The phone interview consisted of two parts:

  1. Coding
  2. Questions about an area of your choice

First, the interviewer asked me to choose two languages. I chose Matlab and C++. The Matlab questions were somewhat easy; however, I had some difficulty during the C++ questions.

For the technical area, I chose signal processing. Since I have an EE background, these types of questions were easy.

Questions
