Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Show a code which show a checked exception he want that you say the problem is checked exception change to unchecked expection.
Applied online. Received an HR screening interview. Took a personality test and a cognitive test. Personality test was just a list of adjectives (without definitions) to describe yourself. No actual questions you might expect in a personality test you would find in actual social science research. Cognitive test required spending 6 seconds to answer 50 questions. Only got through half, which is about 30 seconds a question. I thought that was pretty good for someone who hasn't taken a multiple choice test in 20+ years. Not good enough for Keeper Security. Don't know why speed would be an important factor when it's not needed for security company. Anyone in security knows going fast when it's not needed causes security issues. Failing this test takes you out of considering for all jobs at the company.
