I definitely will be far more prepared for my next programming interview from the experience I gained going through the process once already. It's just sad that my first interview process had to be with a higher-profile company that would have been a ticket into silicon valley. Those interviews don't come easy in the first place. Haven't heard back from anyone else yet, but I trust they'll come along.

As a junior in university looking for internships this summer, I can attest that going through the programming interview process is a pretty foreign process compared to traditional interviews. I just stumbled through my first programming interview last week.

I believe in the future point 3 will be especially helpful. The hardest parts for me were trying to figure out how appropriate it was for me to be rambling as I coded (something I'm not used to doing at all), and trying to understand what was and wasn't appropriate to ask the interviewers about my code.

Time to brush up on breadth-first search and hash tables!
