Process

Had a phone screen interview first. Basic programming questions

Then was invited to their office in Stamford for a 1:1 interview.

Met with 3 developers in the group.

All were completely technical interviews. There were designing questions, programming questions, general logic questions. Questions ranged from designing a class for implementation of ChessBoard game to writing code for some Linked List problem implementation. They focused a lot on multithreading questions and discussed my experience with that. There was a question about string reversal as well which I had to code.

Each interviewer spent 1/2 hr.

Questions

Reversal of all words in a sentence(e.g: "This is a good question" becomes "question good a is This")

Implementation of a hash table class

Was this helpful?
