Process

It was a 40-minute on-campus interview. The interviewer asked a few questions about what I did in the projects I listed on my resume, what courses I am studying at my current school, what I learned from these courses, and what the most interesting part of my project was.

Questions

I asked a simple question about how to convert a Roman numeral, which is a string, into a decimal number.
