Tool Design Engineer Interview Questions

740 tool design engineer interview questions shared by candidates

I was asked a lot of questions about how I would troubleshoot a given problem, improve a given design, approach a given situation, or implement a given thing. I was also given one assignment to complete a set of tasks on unix and two coding assignments. Each assignment was limited to one hour. The goal of the first coding assignment was to build a 4-page web app that took input from the user and interacted with a data store. The goal of the second coding assignment was to analyze web server logs and find the most popular path.

The first tele-con was to go through a buggy piece of HTML + CSS + JS, and point out the bugs, improvements, indentation points, and so on. Basically they tested how much a candidate has experienced production level code. Second round was to code 5 functions in JSFiddle, to create some prototype functions in JS, using object oriented concepts of JS.
