Process
I was selected for a phone interview through an on-campus career fair. The recruiter never revealed the team I would be interviewing for, even after I emailed her about it twice.
I am a web developer, leaning more towards the front-end. I assumed there would be some sort of resume matching and that I would be interviewed on web technologies. However, I was asked questions mostly on topics ranging from OS to ASP.NET MVC, etc.
The interviewer asked me to design a file system using MVC, something like Windows Explorer showing all the files.
He also asked me to code a few simple programs in the language of my choice. I chose Java.
The interview process was a good experience.
Questions
Design a file system using MVC.
Function to write n Fibonacci series after a given number k.
