Question 1
What is the difference between a hash table and a hash set in C?
Interviewed in summer 2014. Their process was straightforward - two phone rounds. Was asked background question related to my resume and coding questions. The communication was slow from HR end but both the interviewers were easy to talk to.

Interview
Applied from the University job portal, the interview was set up a week after my application was submitted. The interview consisted of two 30 minute interviews back-to-back with different Software Engineers. First interview was behavioural and basic questions on front end development, and the interview ended with a quick coding question. The second interview was more focused on technical experience, a couple quick questions about projects and past experience and then the majority of the interview was on a coding problem. Overall, good experience.
