Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Write a basic clone of tail that supports the -f flag.
Write a websockets-enabled 'tail -f' server that will not keep files open, but will repeatedly poll the mtime of the file and not return the whole output each time a user connects.
The requirements were simultaneously vague (in terms of what needed to actually happen) and uncomfortably specific (development, i.e. step-by-step instructions for how to handle the mtime polling).
The use of third-party libs that would significantly increase the productivity were not allowed.
There was no rationale provided in the spec for some of the design and unfortunately, I've dealt with bad specs long enough to know that the company wasn't for me.
It was well coordinated. One round based on overall experience, system design. Round 2 was machine coding. Round 3 again was based on resume, design choices and Round 4 was HR.
I applied through other source. I interviewed at BrowserStack
Interview
The Recruiter approached via Linkedin and gave details about the company, asked for salary expectation and then scheduled for the first round which is the elimination round also.
Interviewer was not friendly.
