Hi,
- bigdude22000 December 21, 2011
In coding questions during interviews, is it advisable to use different languages for different questions?
For instance, a problem that requires Hashmaps (get, put methods, etc) is easier to code in Java than in C. So even a person solves all the other qsns in C (because that person is more comfortable with C overall), is it looked down upon or anything if he/she chooses to do a particular question in Java/any other language other than C?| Flag | PURGE - 6 Answers Hello, I gave Flextrade online...
Hello, I gave Flextrade online c++ test, they asked 16 short C++ questions and I scored 13 (in 22 minutes). I am not happy with my score and wanted to know should I expect a call for further interviews?

A note for everyone applying for the same job:
When you get the code to login and give test, its instantaneous, I thought it would be like Bloomberg and will schedule a test within three days of signing in, but you have to give the test as soon as you login. I was not ready for that. Please be sure that you are on test giving mood while logging the first time.| Flag | PURGE - 2 Answers Microsoft recruitment

Hi -
- matt@spaceboy.co October 20, 2011
I've heard differing opinions on whether it's best for the owner of a business who is (re)entering the job market to obfuscate said ownership on their resume. I'm not talking about lying, but there seems to be some opinion that giving yourself a title like "Director of Development" vs. "Owner" or "President" is better. Reasoning that companies see entrepreneurs as an employment risk, or that they can't take orders from a boss. I always looked at it like it would be a desirable quality in terms of resourcefulness, ambition, etc.
I'm referring more to owning a small biz - a few employees at one time or another - vs. a sole proprietorship type thing. Any thoughts?
Thanks!

Hi,
- jinxuding October 10, 2011
I am doing C++ multithreaded coding on Linux.
Each thread hold some messagers, who need to talk (exchange message) to other messagers.
Each messager is not only a message pruducer but also a message consumer.
If a messager needs to talk to another messager and both of them are held by the same thread , that is intra-hread talk.
Otherwise, it is inter-thread talk.
A messager can generate multiple messages, each of which has a distinct message-receiver ID. Each messager needs to do some computing tasks in order to produce a message.
Only the messager with match ID can receive and consume the message.
All messagers work asynchronously and the message exchange (like a multicast) pairs are fixed and do not change in the whole process of the program.
In order to simulate the above message exchange, I want to associate a priority message queue with each thread such that
(1) Each messager in a priority queue is an element. Whenever a messager's computing task is done and its message is ready for sending out, it has the highest priority and it is poped out and saved in a map with the messager's receiver ID as key.
(2) Then, the messager is push backed to the queue again and wait for receiving messgae from its talk pairs and do the above step (1).
(3) each thread is associated with a queue like this. Sometimes, do inter-thread talk and some times do intra-thread talk.
My questions:
How to efficiently implement the above idea with STL/boost data containers, thread, thread pool, STL/boost algorithm or other boost components ?
Are there other better ways to simulate the talk ?
Any help, advice or idea is really appreciated.

Is okay to do so?
- bharatk October 10, 2011
I've had interviews where I'd be stuck and would be thinking my way out loudly for the entire 30 mins and the interviewer would end the interview citing shortage of time.
I fear, because of this, my ability of answer other following questions would go untested :(
So is it okay to ask the interviewer for help if I am stuck?| Flag | PURGE - 3 Answers Retry Amazon after reject
