      Principal Software Engineer Interview

      Jan 19, 2023
      Anonymous employee
      San Francisco, CA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Turo (San Francisco, CA) in Oct 2022

      Interview

      The interview process was very smooth; Turo's recruiting and coordination teams have obviously put a lot of thought into how to create a good, respectful interview experience. They worked with my schedule, made it clear what to expect at each stage, and followed up with me afterwards to see how I felt, if I had any questions, etc. They were very understanding and compassionate when I had to reschedule due to a family emergency.

      Interview questions [4]

      Question 1

      Design an API and the associated database tables to build Turo services.
      Answer question

      Question 2

      Find the largest "island" in a matrix. Follow-up: find the largest square "island" in a matrix.
      Answer question

      Question 3

      Describe a project that I worked on hands-on, from design through verifying the released product is doing what is desired
      Answer question

      Question 4

      (for higher level engineers): Build a one-hour presentation describing a project which I led. How did I determine the desired outcomes, what challenges did I face, how did I drive implementation, how did I determine whether the project was successful.
      Answer question
