Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Maverick Software Consulting.
Software Engineer
It was a pretty quick and simple process. I went through an onsite interview and then a round with the router team. Both interviews involved going over my resume and discussing my past work. The interviewers were nice and I learned a lot from them, though the internship pay wasn't great.
- Can you explain object-oriented programming and how it's applied?
Software Engineer Intern
First, I had a zoom call with Maverick, which was a technical and behavioral interview. They wanted to know about the pillars of OOP, recursion vs. iteration, and how to debug code conceptually. Then, I had a zoom call with Thomson Reuters Managers where they mostly asked about my experiences and technical expertise. It was important to be confident and show proficiency.
- Could you describe the four pillars of Object-Oriented Programming and elaborate on each one?
- Can you explain the difference between recursion and iteration?
- How would you approach debugging code from a conceptual standpoint?
Software Engineer
Applied online and got contacted pretty fast to set up a phone/WebEx interview. The first interview was a typical format, mainly to check my personality. They also asked about computer science courses I've taken and will take. The second interview was technical, with questions that were easy if you know intro comp sci basics. Just review your object-oriented concepts and terminology and you'll do great. Then there was a third "interview" where I talked to two people from the client team I'd be working with. This one was also more of a personality check and a "Do you know Java?" assessment.
- Can you explain basic object-oriented concepts?
- What's an example of polymorphism?
- In certain cases, what data structure is appropriate?
