Senior C++ Developer at Oanda
No Offer – Interviewed in Toronto, ON (Canada) Aug 2012 – Reviewed Feb 14, 2013
Interview Details
I was called on the phone and asked really basic C++, Unix and Networking question. Anyone can pass the phone screen test which is given by HR that has zero tech/programming background. I got called for a real interview, I answered their questions, coded 2 problems on the white board and than wrote a SQL query and talked about database.
This company seems to be always posting jobs but they never get back to you after the interview. I had another offer, so I took that one and didn't bother with this company. I was not impressed being told I would be working as a integration guy building and testing software. I also got the sense they don't pay well. If you already have a job, I suggest you discuss your salary before you waste your time going to their interview.
Interview Question – You should know your data structure and algo, most of the coding questions are pretty classic and easy to code. If you've done some interviewing you will have come across these questions before, nothing new or really difficult. Know the basic of network, database inside and out. Answer Question

Developer at Oanda
Accepted Offer – Interviewed on Toronto, ON (Canada) May 2008 – Reviewed Mar 24, 2009
Interview Details The first interview was over the phone - the recruiter simply listed off a few programming and networking questions which are designed to weed out those without any experience. The second interview was by a panel of three people + recruiter. The questions were mostly on programming, with a few trick questions. A lot of networking questions may be asked depending on the interviewer. A second interview was later assigned with two more senior members, which consisted mostly of explaining processes and generic questions.
Interview Questions
- I can't recall the exact code, but it's a simple loop which has two variables inside it. One of the variables is auto-incremented, but under a certain condition the last increment is lost. Answer Question
- How would you find if two threads are in dead-lock? How do you resolve dead-lock? View Answer
Negotiation Details – The recruiters will lowball your salary expectations, if you feel confident you may want to stick to your figures. From the experience of others, the company is not willing to accommodate demands for longer vacations. Options in the company and bonuses are not provided on paper.
