This was horribly stressful.
The first phone interview was fine, with no problems.
The second was also a fine phone interview with the manager, featuring some basic, easy questions.
Then, I had to interview seven different times in one day, which took all day.
It was horribly stressful and exhausting, and from 7:30 AM until 3 PM, I was answering questions like, "What does this code print out?" while looking at C++ code snippets. It was ridiculous.
One person asked me about quicksort. I had not studied complexity for this interview, so I could not answer confidently. That was one of the only reasons I was not selected, based on my feedback.
The people were also as interesting as cardboard, and many had accents that were difficult to understand, which made everything more difficult when you're already nervous.
Talk about Quicksort.
What does this code print out?
Difference between vector and array.
Stuff like this, all about C++.
