Interview
applied through an employee referral.
didn't hear from the HR for months until the referral asked again.
contacted by HR for phone screening. went through resume and asked about previous experience, projects worked on, desired position, etc.
Then a phone interview. An employee called, chatted a little bit, and then went to technical questions.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
business sense:
There are two types of cars A and B. The number of people in US who use A
and B are the same. They drive the same distances each month.
Now there are two new technologies, X and Y (of equal cost).
If apply X, mpg of A would increase from 50 mpg to 75 mpg;
If apply Y, mpg of B would increase from 10 mpg to 11 mpg.
The goal is to decrease the dependence on foreign oil, or to decrease the
consumption of gasoline.
Question: which technology would you apply?
Follow up question: after applying the technology of your choice, assume
there's money available for research on new technology, which car would you
choose to conduct research on?
data question:
dialoglog
(userid int
appid int
type char , a flag either "imp" or "click"
ds timestamp
)
How would you access the quality of app?
How to compute click-through rate (in mySQL)?
Total 7 rounds: first round for resume screening, second for technical screening, then for on-site virtual with 4 interviews back to back, then hiring manager round after team matching and then salary negotiation with HR
