Process

First, you will be asked basic technical questions, such as Linux commands and database knowledge.

Second, you will tackle a simple algorithm question. It's helpful if you can do this on your laptop or on paper.

It was a little disappointing that, while looking for a Java developer position, I was interviewed with many low-level Linux and MySQL questions. Therefore, it's best to be prepared for what might be asked.

Questions

This is not a difficult question, but the questions will be related to their product. For example, find the two most popular/frequently appearing strings in an ArrayList, similar to finding the most frequently searched restaurant on Yelp.
