Process
-
A recruiter contacts you and asks basic questions regarding your profile.
-
You will be sent a HackerRank assessment with 20 multiple-choice questions and a 35-minute time limit. It's not too difficult and consists of topics covered in a Computer Science curriculum. It includes debugging code snippets in several languages.
-
A 30-minute technical interview over HackerRank where the interviewer asks you several questions, then gives you a coding challenge (in any language).
-
A behavioral/technical interview.
The interview process was overall smooth and responsive. You never felt like a complete stranger, and the recruiter communicated with you.
Questions
-
Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) Principles
-
Basic string/array manipulation problem-solving (in language of your choice)
-
Behavioral questions regarding your experience in group projects (or working with other people in general)
