Round #2

Round #2 of interviews are coming up. I had lined up 3 onsite interviews with 3 startups. Two of them had to deal with online advertising. That's a proven space on the web. The other one has to deal with editorial and user contributed contents focuses on women.

To get to Round #2, I had gone through pretty long and technical phone screenings with the vp's of engineering and was asked to write a spreadsheet. No kidding. A spreadsheet! Each cell needs to handle reverse postfix expression and reference to other cells in the sheet. Those sample test cases for the spreadsheet have nasty circular references which guarantee to give you an infinite loop? Hard enough? Fortunately, I got that done and gone through to Round #2.

I wonder what kind of torture and interrogation I will be getting.
