Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied through a referral and had two phone interviews. Mostly, they asked about basic C and OS theory-related questions. Although it was easy, I messed up in the second interview.

Later, I didn't get any call or email from them and thought I had lost the opportunity.

Questions

Most questions were based on C and OS-related topics. Topics included:

  • volatile
  • static
  • Linked lists
  • Stack
  • Queues
  • Context switching
  • Strings
