Systems Software Engineer Interview Experience

March 1, 2017
Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied online and was contacted by HR personnel after about a month. A phone interview was scheduled.

The one-on-one phone interview was with a very senior employee. The interview was very easy, and I answered every question correctly, but I did not get the offer.

Only simple coding challenges and OS concepts were asked.

Questions

Coding challenge: Round a number to the next largest multiple of 16.

Coding challenge: Swap even and odd bits of a 32-bit integer.

Coding challenge: Reverse a string.

Question on function pointers, virtual memory, and page faults.
