Huawei Technologies Software Engineer interview questions

Intro: 5 minutes brief of you and the interviewer. Technical Q&A: 30 minutes of technical questions all verbal and all very in-depth. Starts with the basics and then gets harder with each one. Live Coding session 20 minutes and was asked one Leetcode Medium (Sliding window problem). Outro: 5 minutes for you to ask question(s) to the interviewer. I had a very nice interview experience and the person I had it with was clearly very knowledgable in their field and very technical. Would highly recommend. Still the questions were challenging overall but gave me space to show off what I know.

The interview consisted of Leetcode-style technical questions and in-depth C++ questions on topics like polymorphism, virtual tables (vtables), object slicing, and memory management. I was also asked about operating systems concepts, common data structures (like linked lists, hashmaps, and trees), and my personal projects. The interviewer went into detail about my previous coursework and how it relates to the job. There was a mix of whiteboard coding and explaining code logic. I also had to explain how I approach writing technical documentation and PowerPoint presentations for technical audiences.
