      Software Intern Interview

      14 May 2013
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Norcross, GA
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at CareerBuilder (Norcross, GA) in May 2013

      Interview

      I filled out an application online in the afternoon and essentially received a follow up e-mail that same evening informing me the original internship position had been filled (front end developer) but a more general software internship position was open. I was of course very interested, and the HR rep informed me she would be calling the next day at 3. She kept her word and called on time. While I lacked experience (I only have 2 semesters of Java under my belt), she said my enthusiasm and passion nudged her towards setting up an interview with a hiring manager. The actual interview occurred the next week. I was asked why I became a CS major, to tell them about any projects I had done, and asked an object-oriented related question. Afterwards, I was asked to code a method. After that, I was allowed to ask the two interviewers questions of my own. I was then given a tour of the IT department and then left.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Specifically, they asked for a method that would take a String input and output its mirror image. (ie, "Adam" is given; I am to output "madA"). Also, I was asked a very specific object-oriented coding question and how it related to one of my projects. Something along the lines of "Why did you need objected oriented programming in this situation?"
