Software Engineer C++ Interview Experience - Berlin, Germany
November 1, 2016
Positive ExperienceNo Offer
Process
- Too many rounds.
- Very friendly.
- It is more positive for a candidate if they solve two tasks in the given time instead of one.
- There is a very limited time to solve the tasks and a weird keyboard layout.
Get familiar with the environment first. You'll have ample time if you're not panicking.
They probe you for STL containers and algorithms in general.
It was my first onsite interview, and I panicked, unfortunately. Maybe next year.
Questions
Dynamic programming and STL tasks. I got only algorithm questions, and an analysis of their running time.
