The first question was what data structures are used in Java. Then it's about whiteboard coding. I was asked to write a class to describe properties of a car. Some kind of sorting was asked, I didn't get it. Then several stuff about Android: like how to save user's settings; how to use the LocationManager... They expect whiteboard coding, I was only able to tell which API I usually call.

4th skype (design round): - How will you design an app (client) & server to implement a word guess game. For e.g. app will ask user to guess the word (it will show blank spaces first equal to size of the word) one character one time. He will have 'n' chances to guess correct word. Based on the result, he will win or loose money (prize). Assume you have well defined payment & user registration system. Assume external systems required for this game already present. Just concentrate on designing the above core requirement

Implement a LinkedList in your language of choice. For me, it was Objective C. So the hiring manager typed this into a shared whiteboard/document browser window: LList * list = [[LList alloc] init]; [list insert:10]; [list insert:20]; [list insert:5]; [list insert:30]; [list insert:12];
