      Entry Level IT Opportunities Interview

      21 Mar 2012
      Anonymous interview candidate
      New York, NY
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at FXDD (New York, NY) in Feb 2012

      Interview

      Initially applied online and contacted by HR who scheduled a phone screening call with the CTO. He called and sounded very uninterested and could not hide that he thought this call was a waste of his time. He asked basic conceptual programming questions to determine if I knew my stuff (ie: What is Java?, What is the diff between Java and C++? The diff between "Get" and "Post"?, Diff between PHP and MySQL?). I received no feedback for my answers from him at all during the phone call and it ended abruptly. Surprisingly, I got called back by HR for an in-person interview. For the interview, I met with 2 separate people 1-on-1. The meeting with a Project Manager went well and I was asked typical questions on personality and about my projects and experience on my resume. Then I met with what seemed like one of their Jr. Software Developers straight out of college who seemed a little unprepared and held a technical interview. It was a short pen/paper basic Java quiz on code examples. Besides what was on paper, we discussed previous school projects and was asked a brain teaser. It seemed like he was just trying to think up random questions on the spot. Overall, I think the only positive part of the interview was with the Project Manager.

      Interview questions [2]

      Question 1

      What is Java? What is the difference between Java and C++? PHP and MySQL?
      Answer question

      Question 2

      Brain teaser: You have two 6-sided cubes and you want to put digits on them so that when you roll them, you can make the days of the month (01 - 31). How would you place the digits on the sides and on which dice?
