      Programmer Interview

      11 Jul 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Brighton, England
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at West Pier Studio (Brighton, England) in Jun 2018

      Interview

      The interview process was quick and professional. I was emailed a programming and maths test which had a few basic questions for multiple languages, and you were to answer the questions for languages you had experience in or wanted to. The C# section had a code example, and some theoretical questions, I didn't look at the other sections as I was applying for Unity Programmer role. I then had to send some source code to be reviewed, and complete a test on codebunk. The task was a simple task, I thought they were asking larger potentially tortuous technical questions, but no, they were very simple questions and that stumped me because of this. During my interview, my neighbours had building work ongoing, and we struggled to hear each other, but the programmers were very patient and willing to work around it. For the group skype interview (myself and two programmers), they went through my questions and answers in the paper test, then went through the codebunk code test. I was then asked to modify the code and go through what I had used live on codebunk. Example from the interview of a simple question: I used an IEnumerable, and returned an empty collection if it was null to avoid null, which to me would demonstrate that I know what an IEnumerable returns. When asked what an IEnumerable returns, I was confused because I had shown I know it returns null, or the collection in my code. I thought they were asking a larger existential technical question, but no, they just wanted me to say, the collection or null. This combined with the building work, and myself clearly distracted/tilted by the building work made it one of the worst interviews I have ever had. The interview I felt was more geared towards newer graduates rather than working programmers. If they ask a simple question, give them the simple answer, don't think they are asking trick questions or looking for a small technical detail. I realised this and made this mistake when it was already too late, mid conversation about arrays... The two programmers were very accommodating, gave feedback and told me to reapply in a few months. The HR that I interacted with was also accommodating and very helpful.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      What is wrong with the following code and what would you do to fix or improve the code if applicable? private void RemoveDuplicates( List<int> zMyList ) { int listCount = zMyList.Count; for( int i = 0 ; i < listCount; i++ ) { for( int j = i + 1; j < listCount ; j++ ) { if( zMyList[i] == zMyList[j] ) { zMyList.RemoveAt(j); } } } }

I sent the test back ad I was contacted the following day with positive feedback saying they wanted to arrange a skype call with two of their programmers. All very polite and friendly.
