      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at General Atomics (Poway, CA) in Feb 2011

      Interview

      It started with a phone interview. The phone interview consisted of questions on C/C++, Object Oriented Concepts and one or two puzzle questions. The onsite interview started with half an hour recruiter interview, then a panel interview. The panel interview consisted of mainly questions going over your resume. Then a skills test with an hour time was given. The skills test was creating a dynamic array using classes and printing the elements of the array.

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at General Atomics (Poway, CA) in Jun 2026

      Interview

      Initially was supposed to have a 30 min phone call with the recruiter, but ended up starting with an hour long video interview with two engineers instead. Questioned me on basic CS concepts (TCP/IP, concurrency, race conditions, heaps & stack, etc.). This was followed by a 2-hour long interview with the panel. Went over some behavioral questions and then 2 brainteasers and 2 easy LC questions. Overall I felt that I did well in the two rounds as I had answered all the questions pretty well, but I was not selected.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      OS concepts, concurrency, TCP/IP, heaps & stack. Program a simple stack counter and sum triangle.
