Junior Software Engineer Interview Experience - Cairo, Egypt

Process

I graduated in 2018, and the interview had two steps.

First, an online test with multiple-choice questions and some problem-solving.

Second, an onsite interview with three different teams. The first two interviews were amazing, but the last one with a manager was not good. He laughed a lot when I solved a problem and did not introduce the problems well. We spent about 15 minutes describing one problem, and at the end, the description was also bad.

Questions

The online test included problem-solving questions (balancing brackets, debugging printed code, and other easy ones) and multiple-choice machine learning questions.

There were three interviews with three different teams. The interview difficulty ranged from easy to mid-level.

  • Given a stack, find the minimum element needed, with the ability to pop or push anytime.
  • Decode a string.
  • Given a list of N numbers, where each number is less than or equal to N and each number appears at most twice, find the repeated number without using any other array.
