      Software Engineering Interview

      Oct 9, 2017
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Arlington, VA
      Declined offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Mastercard (Arlington, VA) in Nov 2016

      Interview

      I initially met them at a career fair at my university. A week later, they interviewed me in person, on campus. I met with one of their engineers and he asked me one extended question. There were some aspects I didn't know about, but I told him that I didn't know, and he simply moved on to something I might know. A few weeks later they invited me to their office for the final interviews, and there were a series of 4 or 5 technical interviews. The questions were pretty standard design/algorithms fair.

      Question 1

      Design a news feed aggregator where the user has subscribed to a number of feeds but the total content of those feeds is much higher than the user actually wants to consume.
