Senior Software Developer Interview Questions

6,888 senior software developer interview questions shared by candidates

during the first part of the Interview, the Unit manager introduced me the company and the position which was C/C++ developer. In the second part I've introduced my self and my experiences so the unit manager asked me few questions such as: what did you learn with this experience, what was the most difficult thing you faced and so on. After that I had a written test, made of 40 questions to be answered in 40 minutes. The position was for a DEV in C/C++ but many questions were in Java. Here's some questions I remember: What is the difference between an Interface and Abstract class? How would increase the area of a square if you increase the length of a side of 40%? How can you swap two variables containing a integer without using a third variable? How do you convert the hex number CAFE in bits ? How do you convert the bits number 100112100101.... into hex ? And then other java questions rather simple for a java Dev. After complaining about the fact that there were java questions, I have been asked some C++ questions, such as which cast operators do you know, which one you have used, what is the differences, and other basic C++ questions.
