      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Norfolk Southern (Atlanta, GA) in Jan 2015

      Interview

      2 hours of OR and CS exam, then 2 technical interview.The written exam is somewhat easy, if you have a good background of OR. CS's exam is just multiple choice, you don't need to write codes, just to understand some codes. After that, I was interviewed by two senior manager. One of them is kind. Ask about courses I have studied. Another one is a little tough.
