Process
I was asked some basic questions about the projects I had mentioned on my resume, then some standard coding questions.
Because I had an electronics background, I was also asked questions on communication subjects.
The interviewer was very helpful, and overall it was a great experience. I received the offer the next day.
Questions
Resume-based questions.
Two coding questions:
- Two strings of binary numbers were given. The task was to add them and output the final string.
- Another question was queue-based, also involving strings.
Was this helpful?
