I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Cognex (Natick, MA)
Interview
Met with 3 engineers and the manager. Overall it was pretty thorough, covering multi-threading, class design, a mix of C# and C++. Very bright people. Another whiteboard question was to code a program that prints all prime numbers between 1 and1000. There were C++ questions about inheritance and polymorphism, some syntax, for example, given the expression
*x++ = * a ++;
Explain what happens when this gets executed.
