Interview
I took the test in C++ and it was unbelievable. The questions they ask are generally not applicable to daily programming. You need to be thorough with STL containers and function, and by thorough I mean complete knowledge. You will be asked questions ranging from a simple code to questions that would require your testing of knowledge. In my opinion everyone should choose C for their assessment test rather than C++
