First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at XYZ Tech.
Software Engineer
It was a technical screen based on projects, specifically blockchain and MEAN stack, and also on programming languages like C, C++, and Java. They asked about blockchain, its uses, data confidentiality and integrity, and how it works. Then they asked about my work with MEAN stack, MongoDB, and non-structural databases. After that, it was about programming languages: differences between C, C++, and Java, object-oriented vs procedural, if Java and C++ are truly object-oriented, how Java handles primitive types and the difference between Integer class and int, and finally, how I'd choose between C++ and Java for application development.
- Can you tell me about yourself and your core strengths?
- Regarding your blockchain projects, could you elaborate on what blockchain is, its applications, and how it guarantees data confidentiality and integrity?
- With respect to your MEAN Stack projects, please describe your contributions and explain what MongoDB is and your understanding of non-structural databases.
