3,538 software engineer entry level interview questions shared by candidates

Practice logical, math, and verbal questions. The questions are easily prepared for if you got a practice book as they are common questions. The difficulty is so many questions in so little time. Don't meander on the verbal questions. Just pick one and move on.

Practice logical, math, and verbal questions. The questions are easily prepared for if you got a practice book as they are common questions. The difficulty is so many questions in so little time. Don't meander on the verbal questions. Just pick one and move on.

The questions were not difficult. I can't stress enough the importance of basic data structures and algorithms on those structures. Examples include Arrays, Linked Lists, Trees (BST), and Graphs. Something unexpected was how little my interviewer cared about syntax. Even though I had to specify which language I would be using to my recruiter. I was asked two questions and only wrote code for the first, and the general algorithm in psuedocode for the second.
