Process
The first interviewer asked me a pretty standard algorithmic question.
The second was a security engineer and literally asked me to name every HTTP error code.
A couple of red flags:
- They have no Git version control.
- There is no system in place for code reviews or back and forth between product and engineering.
It's a one-way street with all decisions coming from the China office.
Questions
Name every HTTP error code:
- 1xx Informational
- 2xx Success
- 3xx Redirection
- 4xx Client Error
- 5xx Server Error
