Sigh.IT turns out my mailbox blocked email replies from Columbia u，just reschedule my interview. Unbelievable

Whoever said the interview is not technical made an incorrect statement. He/She just got lucky. I had a highly technical interview with multiple brain teasers. Just a heads up for those still prepping for theirs.

 

[KareemK]

Mine did not consist of any technical questions, at all.

Mine was the same!!!!!!!
I prepared for basic questions that supposed to be asked just like others have shared.
But several brain teasers did muddled me……and i think i did very bad in tech problems as well as the brain teasers.

Mind sharing the tech questions?

Sorry that would defeat the purpose of the interview...and I urge others who also had these questions to refrain from posting them.

Just got my interview invite. I Guess they are still sending out. BTW I submitted on the due date and one of my referees submitted a week post submission date.

Sorry. You are right. I got a little carried away with this sharing thing.

Hello,

I will have me interview next thursday and it will be conducted by a French student in Columbia. Actually, I am French too so does that mean that the interview will be in French or it is just an "accident"? Does anyone already have his interview in an another language (not English)?

Thanks for your help

Dear @Benjamindana : I think you interview will be in English. I am a native Spanish speaker and my interviewer was also a native Spanish speaker but the interview was conducted in English

 

[Benjamindana]

@natalia.ochoa.a thank you for your answer, I am preparing it in english so.
