Software Engineer (Internship) Interview Experience - San Francisco, California

May 1, 2018
Positive ExperienceGot Offer

Process

I was contacted to fill a summer intern position that opened up in May.

I had two phone interviews, both technical.

The first began with a short, two-part coding question.

The second began with "Tell me about yourself" before a ~45-minute coding question session, focusing on algorithms and SQL.

Questions

Round 1: Given the root node to a binary tree, print each value in the tree breadth-wise. Follow-up: Print the sum of each layer (depth) of the tree.

Round Two: Construct a Frequency Stack (push, pop, top).

  • Push adds an integer to the stack.
  • Pop/top removes/returns all values with the largest frequency in the stack.

Write a SQL query to return the 2nd largest value in a table.
