I interviewed at Bitdefender (Cluj-Napoca) in May 2018
Interview
Was recommended by a faculty professor to attend the interview for an internship. The interview consisted of a technical test(data structures and algorithms problems), an intelligence test. After that I had an interview with an HR representative.
Interview questions [3]
Question 1
Write an algorithm that given a singlely linked list, it finds the 10 biggest numbers in that list in O(n) time complexity.
Given a square matrix with elements having values of 1 or 0, write an algorithm that counts the "islands" in the matrix. Island = set of connected 1's in the matrix
I applied online. I interviewed at Bitdefender (Bucharest, Bucuresti) in Jun 2022
Interview
I received 3 simple questions about basic programming techniques. One of them required to count how many digits of a number comply to a specific rule. For all 3 questions the programming language didn't matter. Me and the interviewer first discussed the solution and complexity and then I coded a short solution. The interview was very easy as the interviewer said that I didn't need any programming knowledge.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Bitdefender (Timişoara) in Feb 2022
Interview
a zoom call with 2 people and a google form with questions i had to answer right there. i don't have much experience so i can't elaborate. i was given a project afterwards which i couldn't finish due to my lack of knowloedge
There was a test with 2 simple programming problems and a few more complicated questions (but you at least had to choose the correct answer from a list), all related to C or C++
