NetApp Software Engineer I interview questions

Took a month from phone interview to onsite. They never mentioned the salary initially but when it comes to final offer, offer was much less than the market average.. Dont waste time going for onsite, Ask for the offer right away else you will end up wasting time.. Poorly organized procedure.. Respect candidates time. Offer too low then market.

The interviews are done in 3 stages on the same day. My first interview was on systems design and design patterns, interviewer asked about designing some real world examples using C++ structure (as C++ was my strong suit) ex: how would you go about designing excel using C++ and how to go about designing an social networking site like Facebook. Second interview was completely technical lots of basic questions about C and C++ and few problems and at the end one final coding question. Third was a non-technical puzzle solving round where I was ask lots of different puzzles, the interviewer asked to tell him if I had heard about the problem before, as he was more interested in how I solve a problem than, coming up with solutions. The interview insisted that I think a loud and describe my thought process for getting the solution. Initially, I took time getting used to thinking aloud but got a hang of it soon.Q
