Process

The first recruiter called and, after an introductory phone interview, said they would like to arrange an on-site interview.

I went to the Anaheim office, where two employees interviewed me.

The first interview consisted of very general questions like "Do you know X? Do you know Y?" plus one simple programming question, which I needed to write on the board (binary search on an array).

The second interview involved another simple programming question on the board plus a database design with ER diagrams.

The feedback process was slow. Although they told me they would inform me within 2 days, it took them 10 days to tell me their decision. This required me to send 3 emails asking, "Did you make your decision?" and receiving the reply "Sorry, it will be finalized within 2 days" each time.

Questions

Non-programming questions, like what SQL injection is, which I barely could remember.

Programming questions were simple:

  1. Binary search.
  2. Finding whether or not there are two numbers in a given array whose sum is equal to a given value.
