Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto 2 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso FactSet (Norwalk, CT) nel mese di giu 2013
Colloquio
Applied on the company website. Got a call from the HR for a phone interview and was then invited to their Norwalk office for on site interview. The process was very professionally handled by the HR. I chose C++ as my primary language.
1. A very thorough introduction to their products, almost like a client training session.
2. Code walk through. The triangle (mentioned by a few other candidates) class with a zillion errors. Easy but very tedious, you have to watch for dummy loops and wasted function calls.
3. Data structures and algorithms. Trees, graphs and basic sorting.
4. C++ language and OOPS. Couple of newbies asked me trick questions with virtual destructors etc. Was asked to implement atoi function. Then discussed design for a chess game.
5. Lunch
6. A happy conversation with their head of engineering.
7. Perfunctory HR interview.

Colloquio
It was a very casual interview. I was told the interview would start at 8:45 AM but it started around 10 AM. The interviewer was very friendly and walked me through my thought process towards solving the given problem. There were two rounds of interviews, purely technical though I did not get shortlisted for the second round.
