      Software Development Lead Interview

      28 Jul 2014
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Booking.com

      Interview

      First they contacted me through Linkedin.com and we made a phone interview with the HR guy. He was friendly enough and told me about the whole process. After phone interview I have sent them my current CV and we arranged a day for technical phone screening interview. Phone screening interview was actually nice. They asked me two questions and I developed a simple program for both to solve it.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Questions were not difficult but my English was a little bit poor. Also my solutions were the first solutions that came to my mind and I think they asked for a better algorithm for the Development Lead position. Questions were: You have 3 integer arrays, find the common items that exist in at least two of the arrays; Write a program to create a histogram of the top 5 most used words in a file.
