2,906 new grad software engineer interview questions shared by candidates

I agreed not to disclose the specific questions I was asked, but they covered core data structure and algorithms and were moderately difficult. Each question allowed the interviewers to expand the problem if the initial task had been completed (i.e. how would you run this algorithm utilizing multiple threads / machines). My problems covered string parsing, online algorithms, bfs/dfs and memoized search

1st round: googlyness (behavioral). One question I remember 2nd round: recursion + dynamic programming question with strings 3rd round: ambiguous question to design a function that calculates the toll costs for cars/license plates on a highway. 4th round: linked list question
