VMWare Interview Experience for MTS-2 (Experienced – 2 Years)

I appeared for the interview for the Carbon Black division under VMware in October 2020. The process was virtual. I had 3 technical rounds:

Round 1:

1. Explain the switch between user-space and kernel-space in Linux Kernel.
2. Explain volatile in C. Can a volatile variable be const?
3. Few process scheduling questions.
4. One basic coding question on codepair.

Round 2:

1. Explain boot process of Linux Kernel,
2. One coding question on codepair: Break a string according to delimiters in C.
3. Explain storage classes in C.

Round 3:

1. CodePair question 1: Implement a circular queue using an array.
2. CodePair question 2: Find the middle of the linked list.

In my experience, the process was focussed more on Operating Systems and C.
