      Backend Engineer Interview

      Nov 17, 2024
      Anonymous employee
      Ljubljana
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Aleph (Ljubljana) in Mar 2021

      Interview

      The interview started with questions about a number of different topics - PHP and how it works, databases with some trickier questions like cursor-based pagination, questions on concurrency, the differences between parallel and concurrent execution, GraphQL. I was then given a take-home assignment that consisted of integrating a fairly simple external API with any language. The solution to the assignment was then overviewed, and I was asked questions about why I did it as I did it, how I could improve it if I had more time.

      Interview questions [4]

      Question 1

      What's the difference between concurrent and parallel execution.

      Question 2
