      Software Engineer(Internship) Interview

      Jan 17, 2019
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Berkeley, CA
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Thumbtack (Berkeley, CA) in Dec 2018

      Interview

      The interview process consisted of one online code challenge on CodeSignal, two phone interviews, and a final on-site interview. What set this process apart from other processes I've experienced was how the subject matter of the questions (especially on the online code challenge) were in some way relevant to what Thumbtack does.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Implement a calendar data structure in a programming language of your choice that can store events and query events by whether an event is active at a given time.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Thumbtack (San Francisco, CA)

      Interview

      After you apply, you'll be sent an online assessment. Mine was 2 questions, both string parsing. First one passed, second one was extremely involved and I didn't finish it, but still got through to the next round. Then a recruiter will reach out via email so you can schedule a technical interview. The interview is (I believe) 60 minutes, but may have been. 45, can't remember. You log onto a shared code pad, the interviewer describes the question, you code live while talking through it on the phone. Can choose pretty much any language. Must create your own input/test cases. You have whatever time is remaining to ask questions/talk to the interviewer.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Online assessment was all string parsing. Tech interview was a simple graph problem.

      Interview

      They were very nice. I spent a day at the office. Had a few technical interviews and chatted with the cofounder. Technical interviews need to compile during the interview. Their food was delicious. Free Breakfast, lunch and dinner.

      Question 1

      Practicing interview questions on leetCode is good.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Thumbtack in Feb 2021

      Interview

      Have a question about iterator and a follow up. Solve both of them with proper communication. Still got a rejection. Can 't figure out what is wrong. Maybe it's just because the position has already been filled.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Iterator that returns a intersection of two iterators
