I applied through college or university. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Electronic Arts (Austin, TX) in Mar 2014
Interview
Applied online through my college job board. Went onsite for a group interview and a tour. The questions weren't difficult. They asked unix , systems, and some algorithm questions: How do you find a word in a file? What are Pipes? What are some methods of memory management? What is virtual memory?

Question 1
Write a regex expression that matches *list of strings*
Telephonic interview, face to face , and a hr round
They focused more on the topics , deeper conceptual questions. It is a 12 month contractual role yet the difficulty was high, everything looked systematic and well organised.

Question 1
Golden rules of Accounting, and number of journal entries with reasoning.
The recruiter call was standard and my first interviewer was super nice and chill. The second interviewer was a little less chill but I messed up my answer which is why I didn’t get an offer but they ghosted which was annoying
Three rounds of online interviews: a half an hour recruitement chat, followed by two hour long interviews with members of the team, where they went into more depth of the role.
