Engineer Interview Questions

As it is not specified that the International System of Units must be used, define the Elephant unit (E) as the weight of your elephant. Your elephant then weights exactly 1E.

Kyle I have to disagree with you. According to Buoyancy principle: Any object, wholly or partially immersed in a fluid, is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object. So if you calculate the displaced fluid weight, which is quite easy in water as it is very close or equal to 1kg/L, you can get very close to the real weight of the elephant.

Hmm, I think Kyle is right... and so are you when you say "Any object, wholly or partially immersed in a fluid, is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object". IMHO elephants don't float...

Actually Kyle is right. If we put something in the water, such as an sealed box with a ten pound weight inside (does not float), it will displace a proportionate amount of water. However, if we fill it up with a 50 pound weight, the same amount of water will be displaced, however. Fernando, you are using the Buoyancy principle. The Buoyancy principle is meant for objects that float (hence the word buoyancy-it means pressure to keep afloat). As Wouzz said, elephants don't float.

You could just put a boat in water, measure displacement. Then put the elephant in the boat and take the difference. The displacement is going to equal mass as long as it's floating so you're good in a boat. Kyle was right that if you just threw an elephant in a pool, you would have you figure out density and all that.

I would say bring a female elephant and let them enjoy life..

Isn't that just an improvised "weighing machine"?

it sounds like you all are trying to determine whether an elephant is a witch (Monty Python reference). Instead of dealing with the whole mess of a wet elephant, why not use other pneumatic tools like an inflatable platform, an air pump, and a pressure sensor. See how much air pressure is required to lift the elephant.

My experience is this, you don't have to have a perfectly correct answer. The goal of the question is to see if you can think around a problem. Besides elephants, I have heard 747's and aircraft carriers used as the object. A good answer shows that you thought of an alternate way of measurement, so the water displacement and pressure sensor ideas work. PS, if they ask you to weigh a 747, I would answer "Land it on an aircraft carrier and measure the additional water displacement!"

I would use a see saw to weight my elephant. Using my weight (212 lbs in work wear), move the elephant until we balance, and then compare my distance to the pivot point to Clancy's distance to the pivot. (I named my elephant Clancy). The hardest part... finding a see saw strong enough to hold Clancy.

Archimedes Law of the Lever states: Magnitudes are in equilibrium at distances reciprocally proportional to their weights. "Give me a place to stand on, and I will move the Earth."

Elephants DO float, even in fresh water. They're blubbery.

Simple answer : Use a beam balance . Put elephant on one side and start throwing weights on the other side . When the beam is balanced you got the weight of the elephant equal to the sum of weights on the other !

Just ask him...

Just find a person having a bad day and weigh him/her, help that person feel better, then weigh him/her again. The difference is the weight of the elephant you removed off his/her back. Works for monkeys too.

one "weight"(s) by putting a weight on it

note that the answer above is referenced to the question on THIS page which has been transcribed wrongly from the "home page" question (the "t" has been added)

I would ask if it was an Indian elephant or an African elephant.

I would solicit bids and then sub-contract the task to a reputable, cost-effective elephant weight service vendor, and let THEM decide the best approach.They can use a weigh machine or use any other method that does not require ME to use a weigh machine. The question (and answer) are no different than any other variation of, "How do you accomplish a task when you don't have the needed resources?"

by using first clas lever. keep an elephant at known distance from the fulcrum; make the effort distance long enough that your weight balances the weight of an elephant; by using the formula load*load distance = effor*effortdistance( principle of lever) you already know load distance, effort distance and effort now you can calculate load, which is nothing but elephan'ts weight

By using the momentum conservation law, First I find a heavy enough object mith exact mass of m1 and then throw it with speed V1 to the elephant which is standing on a friction-less surface like ice or on plate with wheels under it to reduce the friction. after they meet, the elephant will move. and the object will change its direction and speed. Then I calculate the speed and direction of elephant and reflecting object, and finally I solve the vector equation below: m.v1=m.v2+M.V v1=vector of initial speed of object v2=vector of final speed of object M=elephant mass V=vector of elephant speed

elevate the elephant to height "h". it will have potential energy of "U=mgh". hurl the elephant into a well which is vacumed well to avoid friction. at the end of the well, there is a pool of water with exact mass of " m' " and temprature of T1. after elephant reaches the pool he will give all of his energy to water causing water to become warmer Q=U. so mgh=m'c(T2-T1) with knowing g,h,m',c,T1 and T2 m can be calculated easily.

place elephant on an iron plate and move it horizontally with steady speed v. and pass them through a constant magnetic field of B. change B untill the elephant start to move upward. read B and V. F=V x B is the force of magnetic field ( x denotes vector multiplication) which is now equal to weght force W=mg. knowing g the gravity constant, solve m.

use SEE SAW put elephant on one side and on other side some men when it get balanced weighs the men

Possible answers: 1. Zero. Take the elephant to space. The weight = 0. 2. I can guess it to around 150 kg ( there is fat person who lives next door and we call him an elephant his weight is 150 kg)

I got asked this question. But the water displacement has gotten old. They prompted me for another answer. I said you measure the elephant and find out its volume in cubic meters. Then weigh its leg and measure it. Lets say the leg weighs 20 kgs and has a volume of 20 cubic metres. Then, each cubic metre weighs 1 kg. So if the total volume of elephant is 350 cubic meters, it will weigh 300 cubic metres.

Take heavy weight gym dumbells keep start hanging with the one end of the rope an the other end to elephant and the rope goes over the pully,keep adding weight till elephant gets lifted

esimate the answer to certain range and put it on a boat and if the boat shrinks it is more than the estimate weight else less else use F=MA forumula apply certain force and the calculate acceleration and then mass

OK guys i take a boat which can carry more than a load of an elephant i keep the elephant in that boat [ there fore designed load = load of elephant+ X load] i will add some more load by boarding some swimmers one by one into boat if it starts sinking it means it reached designed load [designed load

By allowing him to sit on us

Fernando,Your answer is really very wierd. First of all: rise in level of water will be equal to elephant's volume not weight. There is a vast difference in volume and weight. Second: if you think that you will estimate it's density to calculate it's weight then it will be a wierd thing because you will never be able to guess it right. Third: rise in level of water of pool will indicate the volume of submerged part of elephant and not whole elephant. If you think that you will submerge whole elephant then obviously you are killing it .So your answer is scientifically and economically wrong. I might suggest that you should take a help of a strong boat to determine elephant weight. take the boat in water and elephant on the boat.the boat will obviously sink a little.mark the level. now get elephant off the boat and put some weights on the boat till it reaches same level. now measure the weights and you will get the weight of elephant THANK YOU

by counting the elephant letters, 8 letters is the answer.

You don’t need a weigh machine to weight the elephant. The elephant is the weight

Check the elephant has ever been weighed in near past and rely on that data

what is lt meaning

Rohan: What if I give you the string "aaaaaaaaaa"? Your solution will print "a:", not "a10".

in java, if you give me a String str="aaabbbcc"; you can't modify the str as all, then how can you do it in place? I assume I can go through the str, and store the new string such as "a3b3c2" anyone can explain to me?

java inplace public void compress(char[] str) { if (str != null && str.length > 1) { for (int last = 0, curr = 1, count = 1, tail = 0; curr 1) { str[tail++] = str[last]; str[tail++] = (char) count; count = 1; } last = curr; curr++; } } }

Need to delimit the array public void compress(char[] str) { if (str != null && str.length > 1) { int tail = 0; for (int last = 0, curr = 1, count = 1; curr 1) { str[tail++] = str[last]; str[tail++] = (char) count; count = 1; } last = curr; curr++; } str[tail] = '\0'; } }

small correction - public void compress(char[] str) { if (str != null && str.length > 1) { int tail = 0; for (int last = 0, curr = 1, count = 1; curr 1) { str[tail++] = str[last]; str[tail++] = (char) (count + '0'); count = 1; } last = curr; curr++; } str[tail] = '\0'; } }

Try this.. it generates the desired output in Java /** * * @author Sourabh Mishra * Class which handles compression of a string replacing the occurrences of characters * with the character followed by its count in the input string * */ public class StringCompressor { /** * Method takes input as a string and replacing the occurrences of characters * with the character followed by its count in the input string * @param data String * @return */ public String compressString(String data){ StringBuilder outBuilder = new StringBuilder(); char prevChar = data.charAt(0); int counter = 0; char currChar; int length = data.length(); for(int i=0; i< length; i++){ currChar = data.charAt(i); if(currChar == prevChar){ counter++; // For the last unique characters if(i == length-1){ outBuilder.append(currChar); outBuilder.append(counter); } continue; } else { outBuilder.append(prevChar); outBuilder.append(counter); prevChar = currChar; counter=1; } } return outBuilder.toString(); } /** * @param args */ public static void main(String[] args) { StringCompressor sc = new StringCompressor(); System.out.println(sc.compressString("aaabbbcc")); } }

What about the input "abc"? I assume that should compress to "a1b1c1" which is NOT shorter than the input, so you cannot compress in place.

1) to implement the dynamic polymorphism using method overriding in child classes with an example of cars 2) implement the merge sort algorithm using either java or c . Try not to leave any test cases ...you will be shortlisted on if you can accomplish all the test cases .

Thanks for your reply. I have cleared the 1st coding round and I have interview within few days. So I just want to know your experience in detail which will help me a lot. Reply if you have any suggestions to crack the interview. Thank you.

Congratulations for clearing the first round , go on practising the algorithms of DAA , writing your own code for all sorting and searching techniques . solve some problems in hacker rank of medium level ...that's all you need . be clear with your basic concepts in what ever the language you have opted for programming .

Is it the same type of questions asked as he mentioned? or different set of questions. Is it through epam test portal?

Hey can u plz explain what questions they asked in 1 st round what type of mcq they asked and is only mcq in 1st round and any other asked plz reply anyone plz share experience

I am not qualified in round 2 and I don't know about round 3 . its not hacker rank , its code ground ....the mcqs were very tough for a normal student unless he is brilliant and have depth in concepts . there were 10 mcqs for 20 marks I think ...and regarding the coding ..you need to do it only in java ...bcz epam is particular about coding in java ...

What about linked list sorting algo can we write in c or c++ and can u plz share 1 st round coding question plz

I don't have either link or the data of the first round coding , but they gave all the interfaces to be developed with some constraints ...and u can write the linked list both in c or c++

Ok Thanks bro for helping this all helps me a lot ..😊 But still u remember some program or unimplemented method that will help me lot .. Thanx in advance..😊 And once again thank you bro ..👍

When I can expect interview call after first round of code ground. Last date to submit code for round 1 was on Friday 12 Jan. I got approx 65-70/100 should I wait for round 2. Please reply I will really appreciate it. Thanks

If you written 2 programs correctly in the first round you will qualify for the further rounds. In the second round they are going to ask 2 programs mainly on sortings and interfaces. Later in the 3 round they will ask technical questions on oops concepts, serilization and collections so more what you have written in your resume. In the HR they will ask general questions to you.

Thanks for the reply . Really appreciate it. i had answered 2 programs correctly but the third one i couldn't get all the test cases correct. Hoping i would be called for 2nd Round . and again thanks .

Already they have sent the mail's for second round for some people. Tommorow they have second round with following others rounds

I didn't got any mail don't know why? Did 2 programs correct with all test cases correct . And the third on 3/6 test cases were correct. Really was expecting their call. Thanks bro for replying .

Hey can you tell me what kind of programming questions they ask in first round..Its easy or difficult? Please reply..

should we really have a web cam for first round.?

can anyone tell me please from which website they have given programs to us for solving, anyone have clue. please reply fast its urgent

We need to have webcam in order to open the test , without it ..it may not open it at all ...and regarding the questions ..they make it from other questions ...not exactly the same as it is ...so be a problem solver ...to solve those problems ....

Please answer what type of questions asked in 1st round?

Pretty much on c and java ...simple questions to expect output of a program.

Hello, given that they had collected your photograph and salary slips, I would say you have a real good chance of receiving an offer with Shell. All the best!

Hi ABC can u share what kind of techincal question they have asked, r they asked to write program or only oral with usecases? as i am having my interview on next week for java developer.

Hi, I understand they are checking the background as part of enhanced screening via a 3rd party agency? How long does this process take? What to expect? And does the status of the application in the Shell portal change regularly? I see it as Completed Assessment. Thanks for a reply.

For me, they obtained declaration to carry out BG check 10 days prior to joining and I was not contacted further in this regard. For some colleagues, third party requested for additional docs. Am not sure on the status of my application on shell portal.

Hi I have been scheduled for F2F interview for QA position on June 6th. Can anyone help me in knowing what kind of questions might come on my way in both Professional Assessment and Structured Assessment If anyone from QA had experience with Shell interviews please do reply.

Hi there XYZ, I suppose your interview is already done, could you please assist me in Professional and Structural interview. what scenarios were asked and what all technical questions were put across. Any tip that i should keep in mind. Thanks in advance.

Being low paid, will it damage my case if i ask for a 50% hike in case selected? I am awaiting result of final round in a week's time.

Usually, Shell has a lower and upper salary limit for a specific salary group. No matter how low your current salary is, you ll be mapped to atleast the lower limit. In my case, I did not have to negotiate, but you may do so based on your requierments.

i completed my final assessment on 8 th August. Dint receive any updated till now. please guide.

Hi, I also attended interview in Shell this Wednesday, everything went fine.. but after all the rounds Hr didn't collect photograph or any Documents.. She just told me that within 2 weeks you will be getting result? Can you tell me, is that any chance that they will select me?

Same here, 2 rounds f2f completed, hr said they will get back to me within 2week, but they didn't collected any doc or photo, will I have chance of getting offer?

Hi, Did you get ur call letter after your process was done.

Hii, did u get ur offer letter?

After final round of interview how many weeks they will take to tell the result?

Did you get the offer and how long it took?

Hi XYZ, did you get your interview feedback. How long they are taking to tell the feedback after attending the final assessment.

Hi there, How long they take to give the feedback after the final assessment. I finished the final assessment on Oct 8, it's been a month now, still no update on it.

Does shell confirm the outcome of interview or do we just need to wait for some indefinite time for a call from HR otherwise assume rejection? If this is the policy then how long should we wait?

U selected?

Friends is anyone got selected for the RD engineer post??

U can't use inbuilt function.

que-This is my book out-Book my is this

Programming questions from c...

These were the questions we faced on round 1. You are supposed to predict the output for the given program... 1. preprocessor some thing like #define sqt(x) x*x main(){ i=64/sqt(4)} 2. various form of array notation like s[ i ], *(s+i), *(i+s), i[s] 3. based on increment operation on pointer. eg. char *s="asdf"; s++; print s++; print s; 4. string.h based ques. eg. char s1[]="asdfasdf",s2; strncpy(s2,s1,3); 5. print char array from n th position to 0. ie. consider previous ques s1[] now just print char from s1[8] to s1[0] using for loop. 6. switch statement with no break except in default statement, enclosed within a for loop, some thing like the below one main(){ int i=1; for (i=1;i<20;i++) { switch(i) { case 1: i+=2; case 2: i+=3; case 3; i+=4; default: i+=5; break; } } printf ("%d",i); } 7. nested function with a static int variable. it has 2 return statement in it one executed on a condition. 8. print sizeof(++i + ++i) considering i as a int of size 2bytes, as sizeof() will perform no arithmetic operation in it, it just print 2. 9. struct base question which as some thing like struct{ int a1:1; int a2:2} and it goes on something like that... 10. bitwice operation performed on int.. i dont remember the question but the result ended up as 1,1,0

If results came please share...

Hy what will be the qualifying mark ? Any guesses ?

Did any one of you got any updates for the drive held on 20th Aug 2017 at Madurai Velammal Engg Coll ? If so, please share here..
