Entrevista
I had gotten an interview through an employee referral. Someone contacted me about a time. There was a miscommunication on their part between the HR and the manager and they didn't call me at the first time we planned, so we had to plan another one. The manager of that team called me and first told me about what they did and then asked me questions about my resume and then asked technical questions.

Pregunta 1
What's the difference between C++ and Java. I said something about pointers and he wanted me to go more in depth.
What is the difference between string builder and string buffer.
He sent me a code and make suggestions:
import java.math.BigDecimal;
public class CashCalculatorBasic {
public BigDecimal getCalculatedAvailableBalance(BigDecimal currentBalance, BigDecimal totalDebits, BigDecimal totalCredits) {
BigDecimal result = currentBalance.subtract(totalDebits).add(totalCredits);
System.out.println("The calculated result is " + result);
return result;
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
new CashCalculatorBasic().getCalculatedAvailableBalance(
new BigDecimal("1250.00"), new BigDecimal("250.00"), new BigDecimal("500.00"));
}
}
Online Assessment with 4 questions for pre-screening. Used CodeSignal, it took some time to match the setup they wanted. 70 minutes for one very easy question, two intermediate difficulty and one hard question.

Got invited to SWE Internship Power day. It had 2 back to back interviews. Questions were on random things. They asked Leetcode easy/medium questions and also Linked list questions. I used C++ for this.
2 rounds back to back First round by a manager, second round by an engineer. A little weird since the manager interviewer asked me a few question not strongly related to software engineering.
