Process
I had one phone interview where the interviewer asked me basic questions about file systems, networking, and scripting proficiency. Later, I received an email for an onsite interview.
This interview was with seven members from different teams. They asked me questions about:
- Operating systems
- Multicore threaded environments
- Perl scripting (specifically regex)
- My desired job role
- My current job role
- My motivations for pursuing this role
- My reasons for leaving my current company
- Basic storage/deletion and memory-based questions related to file systems.
It was an average interview, and I could answer almost all the questions. Strangely, I didn't receive an offer.
