Solicité el puesto a través de la recomendación de un empleado. El proceso duró 4 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en FactSet (New York, NY) en ene 2012
Entrevista
The initial phone interview was rather straightforward, but the interviewer was kind of short and arrogant. Normal CS-theory questions about Big-O running times for specific algorithms and what sorting methods would be optimal given a set of data.
The on-site interviews were 4 back to back interviews with two being engineering topics (algorithms and data structures was the first, in-depth system designs the second). The other two were personality and HR tests, if you consider those to be real interviews (which, I guess they kind of are).

Entrevista
I had a one-hour introductory call, followed by two technical interviews. Initially HR told me there would be only one technical interview, but they added a second one. After the second technical interview they stopped progressing my application, and I have one sencente feedback . What’s confusing is that during the interview everything was completed, they confirmed all tasks were covered, and the interview even finished a few minutes early. I asked several times if there was anything else they wanted to evaluate, and they said no. So I genuinely don’t understand the reason for the rejection.

Very misdirecting. No real conversation, every solution I proposed was problematic. I looked in the stl documentation of std:::list and my up my proposed solution in would have worked. i guess I was supposed to be confrontational and opened up the document in in std::list. Hacker rank kept completing the wrong code.
