Softwareentwickler Interview Questions

Softwareentwickler sind besonders gefragt und diese Rolle kann auch sehr gute Verdienstmöglichkeiten und hohe Arbeitszufriedenheit bieten. Bei einem Vorstellungsgespräch für Softwareentwickler werden Ihnen wahrscheinlich Fragen zu Ihren Hard und Soft Skills sowie zum effizienten Projektmanagement gestellt.

Typische Bewerbungsfragen als Softwareentwickler (m/w/d) und wie Sie diese beantworten

Question 1

Frage 1: Welche Art von Softwareentwicklung betreiben Sie derzeit?

How to answer
So beantworten Sie die Frage: Betonen Sie bei der Antwort auf die Frage nach Ihren aktuellen Softwareentwicklungsprojekten die Programmiersprachen und den Technologie-Stack, die Sie nutzen. Anhand dieser Frage können Personalverantwortliche bestimmen, ob Sie die nötigen Kompetenzen für den Umgang mit der zu erwartenden Workload haben.
Question 2

Frage 2: Beschreiben Sie ein Entwicklungsproblem, das Sie hatten, und wie Sie es behoben haben.

How to answer
So beantworten Sie die Frage: Wenn Sie eine bestimmte Situation schildern, beschreiben Sie Ihre Methoden der Problemlösung und die Maßnahmen, die Sie ergriffen haben. Verwenden Sie die STAR-Methode (Situation, Task, Action, Result), um ein klares Bild des Entwicklungsproblems und der von Ihnen durchgeführten Korrekturschritte zu vermitteln.
Question 3

Frage 3: Wie gehen Sie mit dem QA-Prozess um?

How to answer
So beantworten Sie die Frage: Qualitätssicherung ist ein wichtiger Aspekt der Softwareentwicklung und kann in kleineren Organisationen ohne designiertes QA-Team in den Aufgabenbereich der Entwickler fallen. Falls Ihnen eine Frage zum QA-Prozess gestellt wird, möchte die befragende Person ermitteln, ob Sie gewillt und in der Lage sind, als Teil der Rolle Testaufgaben und Bug Fixes zu übernehmen.

512,337 softwareentwickler interview questions shared by candidates

The interviewer started with some small talk. Talked a little bit about my research work. Then went on with technical questions. Openned terminal on his computer. First he asked about if I know anything about zombie process. Then he asked about ‘malloc’. Then he told me, how would I implement a malloc like function in a separate memory space like some PCI connected to the main memory. The question was not very clear to me. I tried to explain how I could implement that memory over the extra connected memory. I am not sure if he was very happy about it. Then he went onto his terminal. A C program was there. Just two lines char* str1 = “string1”; char str2[] = “string2”; He told me to print the two strings. I did and then he told me to change the ‘t’ in both of the string to ‘T’. I told him that we cannot change the first string. He asked me why? I could not tell it clearly. I just showed him that, it generates a segmentation fault. I told it might be in some place in the memory which we cannot edit. He kept asking the question to prove my point. Then gave me hint and let me print the addresses of main, some variables which have higher value sounded like they are in the stack part. Printing the values of main showed very low address which shows that, it’s in the code segment. The char* variable was in a little more higher address which clearly shows that, it is in the data segment, which suggests that we can not edit anything on the data segment. So need to know what’s more there in the data segment? Then he showed some networking terms ip ipconfig ping some more (around 6-7) which I forgot. He told me to explain in short what these functions do. Then he asked me to write a script on python, which will read a file and add all the numbers on the third column. He showed me the file with cat command. It as a space separated text like 1 7 8 9 6 5 5 0 8 8 4 5 7 2 4 6 8 9 0 7 4 5 1 7 9 6 0 3 8 0 1 7 8 9 4 6 8 0 8 6 9 8 6 9 7 0 7 6 4 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 4 5 6 7 8 9 1 0 1 3 4 8 3 5 1 7 8 9 4 6 8 0 8 6 9 8 6 9 Then he gave me a problem on linked list. The problem was to delete all the nodes with a particular number on it. I just needed to write the main function and call that from the main file. The structure and main file was already written. I just needed to add the function prototype to the *.h file.

You are given a stream of directions in [up, down, left, right]. Each direction means move one unit in that direction. After completing the movements, you will return to the position where you started. Compute the area of the shape you created. I was asked this when FactSet interviewed me a very long time ago. I liked the question so I sometimes use it myself when I interview other applicants..
