Software Engineer Interview Experience - San Diego, California
Process
The phone interview was easy.
A few questions were from my resume.
There were some CDMA protocol questions and a few questions on algorithms.
For example, given a list of arrays with one number missing, describe the algorithm to find it. How to do it in O(n)?
I got the one-site interview.
The on-site interview was a little tough.
There were six interviewers, and it took about six hours, including lunch.
Questions
Write the non-recursive code for Fibonacci series.
Write the code for a singly linked sorted list.
