Interview questions [1]
Question 1
During technical assessment: how would you optimize this code?
I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Trusted Positioning (Calgary, AB) in Mar 2021
Interview
The company felt like a scam! I got an email to schedule a phone screening with a Senior QA Engineer, went all well and he mentioned the next round will be a technical interview.
A couple of days later he emailed me the details of the technical interview; he asked for my availabilities as he'll send me some files to work on and I should timebox myself for a specific amount of time (don't remember exactly) and send them back to him.
After I sent him my available times, he ghosted! I did not hear a word back from him, like have some respect for yourself and for that candidates and give a quick follow-up if you aren't interested anymore.
<resume> you mentioned you created a database in Java, what kind of database? how was it implemented?
<resume> you mentioned you created a board game in C++, how was it implemented? tell me about the data structure/inheritance? How do you make one function inherit from another one in C++?
in the following:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
void foo(int x);
int a = 1;
int main()
{
int c = 10;
foo(a);
foo(c);
cout << a << endl;
cout << c << endl;
}
void foo(int x){
x++;
}
what is the final value of a and b? why? if not changed, how do you modify the code so the value changes by after calling foo()? Java vs C++?
