Software Engineer I Interview Experience - United States

Process

I applied online and exactly a week later I was invited to interview during a virtual hiring event the following week. So, from applying to interviewing, it was about two weeks. I interviewed with a software engineering manager on Zoom during a 30-minute time slot. The interview itself comprised of about 10 minutes of presentation on the company structure, products, and locations. The last 20 minutes were a mix of Q&A and interview questions.

It was very informal and comfortable. The interviewer primarily asked me for anecdotes about programming projects, questions about how I handled interpersonal situations on teams, and questions about my previous experience. He put emphasis on C and C++, though we did discuss Python at one point. There was no technical interview (like LeetCode or HackerRank). I received notification the next business day that I would receive an offer. It was a painless experience and left a positive impression on me.

Questions

How do you go about debugging?

Can you tell me about a programming project you worked on in a group, preferably in C or C++?

How do you motivate someone (who is not keeping up with their work)?
