Software Engineer Interview Experience

April 21, 2014
Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Came to my campus' job fair. It took about a month to start calling people. It took a while to set something up, as the manager was out of town. Finally, I set up a time with a manager who asked Java-specific questions and about my experience. I was told they wanted to continue the process a couple hours after, but have not heard anything yet.

Questions

I wasn't expecting to be quizzed on Java, but he made it seem like it was okay and offered solutions.

What is a static variable?

Tell me about the sorting algorithms you know and how they operate.

Tell me about inheritance and polymorphism. He also asked about other OOP concepts.
