Interview Process
I had a phone screen with LinkedIn for a Software Engineer position. The interviewer started with some basic introductions and then moved into technical questions. The interview included a coding problem where I was asked to perform a dry run of my solution, which tested my coding skills and my ability to articulate my thought process.
Technical Questions
- Transactions in Databases (Database, Design): I explained ACID properties and how they ensure reliable transactions.
- UDP vs TCP (Networking): I highlighted that TCP is connection-oriented while UDP is connectionless, discussing aspects like reliability and use cases.
- Dry Run Problem-Solving (Coding, Problem Solving)
Tips & Insights
Be prepared to explain your thought process clearly while solving coding problems, as communication is just as important as technical skills.
