Interviewed Nov 2009 in Chicago, IL (took 4 days)
I got this interview from Campus Career Center. The first interview is on campus with 2 interviewer asking me about some common questions and math questions. The following week I got pass to onsite interview in Chicago. The interview consists of behavior, technical and 1:1 interview. There are 5 questions in technical test: 1, given a rand() which only generate random number from 1~5, create a random generator can generate random number from 1~7. 2. Given a cell phone panel consists of 9 buttons which there are letters on each number key as the real cell phone, create a function can translate sequence of letters to numbers. 3. Create a function to judge if a linked list is a circle or not. 4. Convert a formulate in inverse poland sequence into normal formula, ex. 523+* into 5* 2+3. I forgot the last one sorry.
About the behavior, nothing to say, common questions. About the 1:1 interview. They asked me about Java about hashtable, how to distribute requests to different servers, garbage collection. I did not get that offer because I did so bad in the 1:1 interview. I am bad at Java.
So pity.

Interviewed Nov 2009 in Chicago, IL (took 6 weeks)
Met with at school career fair. Offered on-campus interview the next week. Met with 2 Orbitz developers, talked about interests, programming, looked at some Java code. Invited to on-site interviews. Taken out to nice dinner with all other candidates (over 40) the night before interviews. The next day, took a skills test, (psuedo-code), got an office tour, and then had two interviews with 2 different people, one group was technical, the other behavioral. Technical interview was very difficult, lots of prying questions about areas that I have never studied or worked in.
