6,953 embedded software development engineer interview questions shared by candidates

The first interview with Lutron was a 60-minute video interview. The interview consisted of two problems: 1) What will this code print? It is question seeing if you can tell the difference between pass-by-value and pass-by-reference. 2) Create a Rectangle class in whatever language you wish. The point of this problem is to show that you can make a class. Then I was asked to include a undo function. I then had to add functionality to the class in order to track the state of the class. Next, I was ask about how would do inheritance so that there could be other shapes. Finally, I was asked what would need to change in order to allow an undo function to undo the last modified shape, not just an undo relative to one function.

Something about the Kelly Criterion (can't remember the exact question but I have no idea how knowledge of this was implied for a DS). Google "time series rates of return kelly criterion" and look at the first link. I was asked basically everything on that post and then some.
