Have a C++ programming interview for a game company coming up. pls advise Sup Forums
It will probably help to know C++
noted
start off by insulting your interviewer's mother
also good advice
make sure you can do every exercise in Cracking the Coding Interview
That's what I've been going off of. But I'm afraid the questions may be more maths based for a game company. Unless it's all the same shit
Make sure you can write basic fucking code. Also make sure you know about the standard libraries if its specifically about c++. Are they expecting you to really have any experience? If this is a junior position or for an internship, you don't really need to know shit other than stuff like how to set up a basic data structure like a binary tree or a linked list. I doubt you'll need to do much math beyond that kind of shit you should pretty much know in your sleep anyway.
i miss the ralph pootawn pics :( so old and good times.
trolling' in peoples houses and shit
It's not a junior position. Standard Software Engineer role. That's why I think they might try to hammer me. I've had technical interviews but not for a game company
Where blackface to the interview, that's what got me my last job.
Alternative: If you yourself are black show up in a nazi uniform. It's not racist if you're not white.

A new game company? Whats it gonna be called?
Ask a shit ton of questions. Like you are interviewing them to figure out if you want to work there. Be the alpha and explore all options when you are answering their questions to show all the shit you know. Also, never tell them your salary range.
Make sure you reference pop-culture as much as possible, indie developers are total nerds and they're probably looking somone who's chill and can get the job done. What better way to look chill than to seem like a nerd amongs them?
Also black mail your interviewer and threaten him and his family in order to ensure your position in this so called game company.
What company are you applying for? what have they done in the past? what have you done in the past? lets spice up this thread a bit, huh?
It helps if you can find out who else has an interview and pay a group of people to dress up as all of them and trash the office the night before. It'll make you look like the best choice no matter what.
thanks for the reminder bud. im off to sleep, or else i'd stay and request some more of his trolling
have a nice life(first)
It's for Rockstar. I've been doing general software engineering for a digital advertising company. Never worked in games.
If you show up with a large knife protruding from your pocket and make plenty of suggestive comments about how something bad might happen if you don't get this job. That should work out for you!
Seems pretty baity, I don't believe you fam.
I'm not trying to convince anyone of anything I just want programming interview advice
If you follow the boss around for a couple of weeks you should get something good to blackmail him with.
If you can prove that you are the one true son of God that should get you the job.
Noted
Why are you asking for advice though? didn't you have an interview for that advertising company to be their general software engineer? To be honest I think you should be the one handing over advice, how old are you user? god damn, you're getting those numbers in those checks! cash 'em up boys
Sucking dick is always an option. It will at the very least distinguish you from the other applicants.
Do you feel you have a good amount of C++ programming knowledge to fill the role you're applying for?
-Dress a bit nicer than what you would be wearing working there. If everyone there is wearing jeans and tshirts, come in with dress pants and a tucked in polo. If they're dress shirts and belts, wear a dress shirt with a tie and a belt.
-Be calm, confident, don't lie.
-Do a bit of research on the company, see if you can't find something about the company you'd like to know more of when/if they ask you if you have any questions for them.
Pull out a big bag of coke and say "if I get this job we're gonna party!" If they aren't interested it'd probably be a lame job anyway.
this guy has a point
I feel I do. But I'm a really bad test taker. The calm and confidence part may be the key.
Drugs are always a safe choice in negotiation tactics. Good fallback plan
A certain amount of nervousness is expected from most applicants at jobs. Get a good night's rest beforehand, should help everything.
Wish you the best man. Hope you do good.
