I interviewed at Luxoft (Cairo, Cairo Governorate)
Interview
HR Reached me informing me that there is a senior C++ position available and asked me if I am interested after showing my interest, I received technical C++ test After taking the Test I got email that I have passed the Test and the HR reach me again for scheduling the technical interview the technical interview was mixed between coding challenge and modern C++ question, at the end of the interview he told me that the HR will contact me shortly and HR contacted me for the hiring manager interview and the hiring manager interview was really friendly talk about how we deal with customers, team and sprints and I was told that I will get feedback in next week and I didn't get any feedback for a month even after sending a follow-up to the HR
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
what is RAII in modern C++ and what is the application for it?
coderbyte, short quiz and two sinple coding tasks. standard tasks no gotchas - classes, templates, operators, inheritance.
overall easy to fallow, no specialistic knowelage required - it was jus a short assesment if someone is coding or not
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Luxoft (Turin) in Aug 2022
Interview
Il primo contatto è stato con l'HR, sono stato poi messo alla prova dal punto di vista tecnico tramite la piattaforma online IKM, dopo il test ho fatto un colloquio tecnico abbastanza facile con una risorsa interna di Luxoft, seguito poi da due colloqui tecnici piuttosto approfonditi e difficili con un'interessante azienda automotive (cliente Luxsoft). Alla fine ho rifiutato l'offerta perchÊ avevo ricevuto una controproposta molto allettante e diverse promesse di crescita, ma me ne sono pentito. Tornassi indietro accetterei. Nel complesso esperienza positiva, mi dispiace di aver fatto perdere tempo.
