Colloquio
I submitted my resume through the job fair of my university. I got the email of the first interview after more than one month.
For the first interview, I was asked some general questions about how to design a problem using different kinds of distributed and parallel tools, like Hadoop, Hadoop PIG, and MPI. I think the reason is that I have previous related projects. No online coding.
After the first interview, I got the email of next step within only 2 hours.
For the second interview, the interviewer is a system architect. And we only discussed several question of Hadoop and HDFS. Also some general questions about OOP. No online coding.
Then the next day, I got the offer.

Domanda 1
How to find the k largest number in a distributed environment through a frontend tool. I am quite unfamiliar with frontend tool, so I just proposed a method which is more like a joke, and the interviewer also laughed about it.

It was medium level interview. The interviewers were very responsive and friendly. They concentrated more on approach rather than optimisation. In the end, I was able to come up with an optimised solution.
