(4 Questions)

  • Q1. Questions on pointers and bit manipulation
  • Q2. Derefer a null pointer
  • Ans. 

    Dereferencing a null pointer means trying to access the memory location pointed to by a null pointer.

    • Dereferencing a null pointer can lead to a segmentation fault or access violation.

    • Example: int *ptr = NULL; int value = *ptr; // This will result in a segmentation fault.

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: PRE PLACEMENT OFFER
Experience: Interns (both CS and IT) were selected in my third year. Pre-placement offers were rolled out to 16 of us which was roughly a conversion ratio of 1:3. A couple of ECE hires were added when SRI-B visited campus later.

General Tips: If you're in CS or IT, this is the only format your resume should be in: -----
Take your internship seriously. Have fun and all but also get your project done. It's not the end of the world if you don't get a PPO. Campus placements are tension-filled, no doubt, but a lot of people get equally good if not better jobs after missing out on PPOs.
Make sure you talk to your manager about the PPO process. She will be the one giving you your final review. So ensure that she knows you want the job. Prepare a fancy presentation for the HR. By fancy, I mean slick and professional. Think Apple, not flashy Microsofty graphics and stupid word art.
Skill Tips: Google GSAT (Global Samsung Aptitude Test) a week before the test and make sure you practice some similar CAT type questions. Questions are of medium difficulty and time management is a real issue (most of us were unable to finish properly). - I didn't have to use these but I've heard good things about codechef/topCoder and books such as Cracking the Coding Interview by Gayle Laakmann McDowell.

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: This was a programming based round. I was asked to write algorithms for various array linked list based problems. There was cross questioning prompting to reduce complexity and to use different data structures for same problems.

Mostly it focused on subjects like c, data structures and ADA.
Tips: Be clear with basic of data structures and algorithms. Pointers, queue, stacks, array linked lists, sorting etc are the keywords.

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: This was a information security specific round since that was my major. In depth cross questioning on my thesis topics, honeypots, network intrusion etc. Security certificates, and on the go problems to provide security solution layer wise in different scenarios. Security concept of torrents was also asked in detail.
Tips: It was more of a security discussion and throwing of ideas about how things in a particular case could work or could not. Don't worry about right or wrong answer just be clear with your reasoning about the solution you are suggesting.

Round: Other Interview
Experience: I don't know what to name this round, but it focused mainly on developing test cases for an object. Say they gave me a stapler and said to develop a test plan listing down test cases for a given object to pass so that it can be confirmed that it is a stapler. Another scenario was with a lift.
Tips: This is one round where your presence of mind and inter personal skills matter. I think the way you present your thoughts was most important here.

Technical Interview round with questions on OOPS and OS mainly.

  • Q1. What are Little Endian and Big Endian in the context of computer architecture?
  • Ans. 

    Little Endian and Big Endian refer to the order in which bytes are stored in computer memory.

    • Little Endian stores the least significant byte first, while Big Endian stores the most significant byte first.

    • Little Endian is commonly used in x86 architecture, while Big Endian is used in architectures like SPARC and PowerPC.

    • Endianness can affect data transmission between systems with different byte orders.

  • Answered by AI
  • Q2. Write a program to determine if your system is little-endian or big-endian.
  • Ans. 

    Program to determine system's endianness

    • Check the endianness by storing a multi-byte integer and checking the byte order

    • Use bitwise operations to extract the least significant byte

    • If the least significant byte is at the lowest memory address, it's little-endian

    • If the least significant byte is at the highest memory address, it's big-endian

  • Answered by AI
  • Q3. What is the volatile keyword in programming?
  • Ans. 

    The volatile keyword in programming is used to indicate that a variable's value can be changed unexpectedly.

    • Volatile keyword is used in multithreaded programming to prevent compiler optimizations on variables that can be changed by other threads.

    • It tells the compiler not to cache the variable's value in a register, ensuring that every access is made to the variable's memory location.

    • Commonly used in embedded systems pr...

  • Q4. What is the use of a function pointer in C?
  • Ans. 

    Function pointers in C are used to store the address of functions, allowing for dynamic function calls and callbacks.

    • Function pointers can be used to implement callbacks in event-driven programming.

    • They can be used to switch between different functions at runtime.

    • Function pointers are commonly used in implementing data structures like function pointers in an array of function pointers.

    • Example: void (*funcPtr)(int) = &a

    The kernel is the core component of an operating system that manages system resources and provides a bridge between software and hardware.

    • Manages system resources such as CPU, memory, and I/O devices

    • Provides a bridge between software applications and hardware components

    • Handles tasks such as process scheduling, memory management, and device drivers

    • Controls communication between hardware and software layers

  • Answered by AI
  • Q7. What is a storage class in programming?
  • Ans. 

    A storage class in programming defines the scope and lifetime of variables.

    • Storage classes include auto, register, static, and extern.

    • Auto variables are created when a function is called and destroyed when the function ends.

    • Register variables are stored in CPU registers for faster access.

    • Static variables retain their value between function calls.

    • Extern variables are declared outside of any function and can be accessed
