Java program in round 3 was the most difficult question in my case. A matrix halfly-filled with numbers - almost randomly was given . And You need to fill the blank matrix of same size with those numbers in similar arrangement in a program using 2D arrays and loops.

However the interview was about Senior Java Position, I just asked a couple of questions about Java and nothing about Javascript. The interview questions were about: 1. Data structure and algorithms (30 minutes) 2. Operating Systems Concepts (System calls, concurrency, etc, Device Drivers.) 3. TCP/IP Layered protocol ( I was really really good at this when I was in college :) ) Till now about 1 hour or more passed from the 90 minutes interview... 4. Couple of questions about REST, Java Concurrency and Testing I could understand the emphasis on the OS, algorithms design and analysis is to be asked at Google & Amazon-like companies or to be asked to a fresh engineer he is just graduated from the university with a fresh knowledge. I am not denying their questions about OS, Data structure, and algorithms, but to make most on the interview for such topics and eventually got rejected because my knowledge in JavaScript is not enough is not honesty in reporting the Interview status. I answered the algorithms question and OS, TCP/IP from memory (which mostly wasn't that accurate as I left university more than 10 years back).

Convert number above in hexadecimal 312312 Ex. 255 -> FF 254 -> 254 div 16 = 14, int(254/16) = 15. -> F, E Later I found the detailed Division-remainder in source base http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexadecimal#Division-remainder_in_source_base
