Behavioral Technical

It was pretty straightforward. We discussed my skillsets and experiences, the tech I've worked with, and how it could be utilized in their company. Just gotta be open minded.

Behavioral Technical Coding Presentation

I got an email from someone after chatting with a recruiter at a Career Fair. We had a phone chat which was basically to check if I fit the company vibe. Then there was a technical phone interview where they just asked me vocabulary questions about OOP, Algorithms, and Databases. After that, I got an email for the final on-campus interview. This interview included 3 coding questions, a discussion about my answers with an engineer, and then a chat with a manager. For each question, I had to provide pseudocode and then write the actual program in C++, Java, or Python.

Technical Coding Behavioral

It was a technical phone interview that lasted around 30 minutes. First, there were some personal interest questions to kick things off. Then, it quickly moved to rapid-fire definition questions about OOP. Finally, there was an optional database section. None of the questions really tested programming skills.

Confirmed questions3 questions
  • Can you define encapsulation?
  • Could you provide definitions for OOP concepts?
  • Are there questions related to databases?
