A friend referred my resume to the manager. I received an email to schedule an interview.

First phone interview:

1. Tell me about yourself.
2. Some basic Java questions were asked, such as: "What is static?", "What is the difference between abstract and interface?", "final, finally, finalize?", "array vs. linkedlist?", "hashmap vs. hashtable?", etc.
3. I was asked to ask some questions about the position and the company's products.

I received an email to schedule the second round of interviews.

Second phone and technical screen interview:

1a. Return the number of occurrences of a given character in a string. 1b. List the number of test cases. 2a. Reverse each word in the given string. 2b. List the number of test cases.

1. Returns the number of occurrences of a given character in a string.

2. Reverses each word in the given string. eg. "Hello, World!" ==> "olleH, dlroW!" "I am 20" ==> "I ma 02"
