3,883 lead software engineer in test interview questions shared by candidates

I've heard rumors about the weird questions they could potentially ask you. Maybe I was prepared because I didn't find any questions difficult or unexpected. Most of the questions were technical in nature. How would I do this and that; draw certain algorithms on a white board. etc

An array that has 8 bit slots but is storing 12 bit integers, so position zero stores the first eight bits of the integer, and the first 4 bits of position one store the last 4 bits. The second 4 bits of position one store the highest bits in the second integer and position two stores the lowest 8 bits and so on. Devise a way to read these numbers from the array (in C)

I would rather not disclose any interview questions. I will say that half the questions I got were very personalized, while the other half are similar to the ones you can find online... Know your algorithms, data structures, and design patterns. My networks, information security, databases, compilers, and finite state automata knowledge came in handy as well.
