Software engineers write programs to design and develop computer software. Interviews are highly technical, so come ready to work through coding problems and math brainteasers. The specific questions you are asked will depend on what type of programming position you are looking for. Try researching a specific software discipline such as web development, application development, or system development.
* Merge two sorted linked list. The merged list should also be sorted. * Compact a string. i.e remove spaces * traverse a link list containing char* as data. test cases for the same. * reverse a string. test cases for the same. * remove all the given characters from a string.
Write a method which return how many palindromes are in a word. Eg: barbarabar has 7 (b,a,r,barab,a,r)
Implement integer division without using / or %. Questions about running time. Can you do it faster?
Build a key-value data structure that allows the user to take a snapshot of the data. The user can read the key-value store from any snapshot. Structure has the normal key/value like methods plus something like snapshot = dataStructure.takeSnapshot() value = dataStructure.get(key, snapshot) void dataStructure.deleteSnapshot()
Soft Skill question: How did you manage to solve a specific problem in the past? With what means? Questions that you have to answer on e.g video format before the interview: 1) Why have you applied for this position? 2) What will you bring to this particular role? 3) What do you expect from this position? Then a set of technical questions sent to you by email (answer before the interview) 1.Explain when and why you would use multi-threading programming? 2. When you would use templates over inheritance? (C++) Please explain. 3. In your opinion What is the most important change in C++ in the last 10 years, explain why. 4. A process is having performance issues but you do not know where exactly the problem is. Which tools would you use to diagnose the problems and how? Please start with basic system tools expected on any system first and with the possibility to add more advanced tools second. 5. Give a code example of a ranged for statement in C++. 6. What is the difference between Abstract and Interface classes (C++)? 7. How you would implement the error handing for a function controlling a piece of hardware? You can write the pseudo code if needed. (C++) 8. What is difference between C++ shared_ptr and unique_ptr. When would you use each of them. 9. What is C++ uniform initialization, please give a couple of code examples. 10. What is a python decorator and when you would use it. 11. Explain what is a python lambda function and give a code example. 12. What would be your criteria to decide when to implement a tool in C++ or Python
Develop a program that solves mazes.
Describe an algorithm that will take in a large input of English words that may contain duplicate. Then return only unique words from the input.
They asked me to extract words from the parse tree. e.g. ((NJ (NN James) XX is) (AJ tall)) -> James is tall. Another question is to reverse a string an capitalize all the starting positions of words and lower case all the ending positions of words. e.g. Hello World -> Dlrow Olleh
Write a function addSubtract that will do the following: addSubtract(5)(8)(3) -> 5 + 8 - 3 -> 10 addSubtract(2)(1)(1)(5)(3)(2) -> 2 + 1 - 1 + 5 - 3 + 2 -> 6 etc.
There were 2 questions: 1 design and 1 implementation. The design was something like the following: you have a billion google searches a day, design a data structure which lets you pull out the top 100 unique ones at the end of the day.
