Hi guys,

Actually I am in sophomore yr studying Electronics and Communication Engg. I applied to a start up company and in couple of days they took a phone-interview...

All I read about phone interview was they are going to ask me about some personal/ personality/ general questions like (about yourself/ weaknesses etc and sometimes "little tech")

My interview was something close to shocking (may be because its my 1st interview)... recruiter didn't ask me any personal questions.. he straight away asked me about the project I did and asked me to say on it.. and then asked couple of questions on C

1. where does the whole program is stored.. I said, its in secondary; some parts like data types and all would be taken into temporary mem and stack..

2. difference b/w
Code:
# include <stdio.h>
and
Code:
#include "yourLIB.h"
- I said, there would be change in search process.. " " are used for user defined lib..

3. asked me about why you want to join an internship -- I said, It would give me practical experience as I never had one till now ...

4. what is function pointer ; this is where I think I screwed up a bit.. Out of tension and all I forget.. said functions where pointers are used ... (kind of, don't remember exactly..)

5. A I mentioned that I am learning python.. they asked me "how could u differentiate C and OOP ..
- As in the middle of conservation.. I said, we can actually implement OOP approach/ ways in C but as they are very complex in nature.. people don't do it..

so, he didn't agree on it. . but asked me "how can u implement polymorphism in C.. I screwed up again.. said "I don't know".. seriously guys, I read it in oop books..

They also asked me "what you exactly bring to us .. " - I said. . I am a enthusiastic programmer, quick learner, can do code for till it gets completed.. (I seriously meant them. not just words).

So, finally he said about his company and proj in brief and told me that one of his team member would call me for a more formal tech interview in a week/20 days.

I read about data structures/ searching/ sorting.. he didn't ask


This is what happened.. how would u rate this interview. Is there any chances of getting into it or I really screwed up!!.

I just don't know as this happened to be my 1st interview..
