      Software Engineering Intern Interview

      19 Jan 2023
      Anonymous employee
      Washington, DC
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Optum (Washington, DC) in Feb 2022

      Interview

      I applied for the TDP internship and was given a hackerrank online coding challenge to complete. It was 2 questions, 60 minutes. It was very straightforward, the first one being basically fizzbuzz and the second being a class design that wasn’t very hard. I then received an email saying I would have a virtual interview with an employee. During the interview, there were behavioral questions. There were no new technical questions, instead he pulled up my responses to the hacker rank and asked how I would optimize/do differently the 2 problems. I then received an offer about a week or two later.

      Question 1

      How would I optimize my solutions to the two coding problems?

      Easy interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Optum

      Interview

      Interview over Microsoft Teams, no technical questions asked. All behavioral, nothing very intense at all. There is a recorded video preinterview though where you get screened, which was pretty weird.

      Question 1

      How do you approach technical problems you are unfamiliar with?
