Interview
Talked with a recruiter during campus job fair. The recruiter gave me a programming problem immediately and asked me to solve. I wrote some codes he seemed to be satisfied. Two weeks later, I was contacted by HR to schedule an on campus interview. It was a 50 minutes technical interview including two programming problems. First some concept questions about virtual function in C++. After that, one more question about pascal triangle and at last, reverse the word order in a string.
