      Junior Software Developer Interview

      9 Nov 2019
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Squarepoint Capital in Sept 2019

      Interview

      Phone interview with technical questions about C++11, OS, multi-threading and then an hackerrank challenge. They ask questions about your last previous experience, and go on with the technical stuff. You need to remember your textbook university material spot-on. They don't care about the way you answer a question; they want a textbook answer. The 2-3 C++ questions were kinda basic and limited for a developer position. I will leave a review of an "average interview" because it was for a junior Python or C++ position (1-2 years of experience) that didn't ask for low-level networking experience but still they expected me to have previous professional experience in that field. That wasn't indicated in the job offer I applied on, which means to me they don't care about their candidates and recruiting process. I feel they mainly hire based on connections. Interviewers are not managers or leads, no HR in the recruiting process. My advice is not to lose time applying for jobs at that company.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      shared_ptr vs unique_ptr, difference between a thread and a process, virtual memory in an OS, , LRU cache

      Junior Software Engineer Interview

      Anonymous interview candidate

      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Squarepoint Capital

      Interview

      Had an initial call with a recruiter and was forwarded to the "first" technical interview. Interviewer was a couple of minutes late and joined with his camera off. Mic was poor and there was an audio delay as I was in England and he was calling from Canada. He asked questions about my background and some basic CS trivia. By the time he loaded up the technical challenge on HR, I had 20 minutes. He asked me to solve the question and immediately tabbed out to continue working (his keyboard was on fire).
