I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Magnitude Capital in Sep 2020
Interview
First call is intro HR call. Very nice people, super friendly and funny.
Second call is more technical with their CTO. He's very friendly and leads you to answers if you don't really know them off the back of your hand. He can see your thinking process and ability combined with Comp Sci knowledge by building a scenario with real-world examples.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
What's the most efficient data structure for a system to access linked information (like account number with balance)? What is the computational complexity?
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Magnitude Capital
Interview
I received an email about two tests, one comprehensive test to answer 3 questions after reading an article regarding C# and a coding test with 2 tasks. I finished all of them in one day. One coding task is looking for the errors in a binary search. The other task is to check if an array needs to have more than one swap, if more than one swap is needed, return false; otherwise, return true. The next day after I submitted all my tasks, they sent me an email saying that they are not going to process my application. I have no idea why they don't want to process. I am very sure all my answers and tasks results are working perfectly.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
According to the author, is C# strongly or weakly typed? Why?
The author asserts that C# is “for the most part, a statically typed language”. What does it mean to be statically typed?
What are some trade offs between having a language be typed statically vs dynamically?
