Interview
I applied online on October, 2016 but did not hear back until December. While waiting, I personally contacted one of the employee who I knew from my university and right after I was referred by that person, the recruiter began contacting me for documentation and scheduling the interviews. I went through three separate phone interviews Jan~Feb, 2016. The interviews were sequential--scheduled one after another. All interviews were about coding questions. No question on my resume or background at all. All was 1:1 and the interviewees were very interactive and trying to help.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
There were one or two coding questions per an interview and most of the questions were similar in its pattern: Given specific set of data (e.g. 2D matrix with random values or with some patterns), what is the best way to do some specific operations (e.g. searching or sorting) on that dataset? Explain how you will solve it and why you think it is a good way. Show the implementation.
