Application
I applied online. I interviewed at AppLovin (Palo Alto, CA) in May 2017.
Interview
During the phone screen I was asked questions on standard networking topics such as subnetting, BGP, ethernet switching etc., Linux questions such as how to view disk space on a linux host and fundamental programming related questions such as writing iterative/conditional loops etc.. I was called for an in-person interview a week later where my skills related to the above topics were tested in greater detail.
Interview Questions
- How do you add a network interface to a Linux host? Answer Question
