I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Qualtrics (Seattle, WA) in May 2016
Interview
Contacted by recruiter, initial phone interview and then onsite at Seattle office. Interviewers are mainly new hires and are not very senior people from the industry. It seemed to me that interviewers were just trying to do show off. I am not afraid of complex coding questions but interviewers spent a lot of time in crap-talking which resulted in just 20-25 minutes to finish coding.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1. Write a program to print all paths in a binary tree where path-sum is equal to given number. This was asked in telephonic screening.
2. How will you serialize and de-serialize binary tree?
3. Find a median for a stream of numbers? Now, design a service which has this api to perform this operations? you have multiple streams now.
4. Give a start string "ball" , end string "John" and a dictionary that contains the some words. Find if you can conver "ball" to "john" by changing one char at a time, and using the words from the dictionary? How will you design large scale service doing the same?
