Posted Jan 2024 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My Siemens EDA experience stretched across two separate attempts for a C++ developer role, and both times the interview path was focused on hands-on problem solving.

The first attempt centered on implementing things from scratch and dealing with C++-level mechanics—there was a custom vector question, pointer-to-pointer output handling, and something that involved implementing shared_ptr with reference counting. I also got algorithm questions like Binary Tree Cameras and searching in a rotated array.

The second attempt went even deeper into C++ and correctness: I worked through pairs with sum divisible by K, built a custom atoi, and handled polymorphism concepts. Toward the end, I got an algorithms-style problem about satisfiability of equality equations.
