Process

I applied for a co-op position through the university.

I was challenged with an initial phone screen, followed by a phone interview with the manager.

I have interviewed with various teams for this company, and it seems there are random engineers who are asked to take on the interview process.

These interviews lack consistent areas of questioning and a clear understanding of the level of expertise offered.

Questions

How would you set a breakpoint within your code without a debugger (e.g., GDB)?

The engineer wasn't sure how to phrase the question correctly, as he was looking for a concrete answer.
