Mid 90s at Apple, questions were often very specific to the platform. One manager I knew would bring a printout of a macsbug stdlog - basically current stack trace, disassembly around the pc and the state of various system globals, and have you work through how it got there. As platforms have exploded I wouldn’t expect that level of familiarity anymore, but if I’m hiring for a c / c++ engineer I expect you to be able to describe in hand wavey terms what a structure looks like, and be able to write an accurate memcpy (and I don’t care about syntax!) |
