      Software Engineering Interview

      12 Mar 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      San Francisco, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at IPSY (San Francisco, CA) in Feb 2018

      Interview

      2 telephone interviews The first interview was with a mid-senior level engineer, he was able to clarify the questions. I got a reply within a few hours after the interview. The second interviewer was stone cold, he gave the question and there was dead silence. I was taken aback from that experience. Felt like I was talking to myself. He didn't even reply to any of the questions / clarifications I had on the 2nd phone screen. I got a reject after the second phone screen in 72 hours.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      1st phone screen questions : Given two strings A and B, write a function check if B contains the permutation of A. In other words, one of the first string's permutations is the substring of the second string. Given two strings A and B, write a function check if B contains the permutation of A. In other words, one of the first string's permutations is the substring of the second string. input: a = “apple” b = “appealing” output: true (ppeal) input: a = “apple” b = “ppleaasdflkn” output: false phone screen 2 : 1) Given n Build sequence 1, n, 2, n-1, ... For example n = 5 return 1, 5, 2, 4, 3 n = 6 return 2) Given n Build all correct bracket sequences of length 2 * n Example: n = 2 returns ["(())", "()()"]
