Blade logic interview question. 1st round is a written tests with 15 multiple questions from c and c++. All are simple basic question. Like int main () { Int i=65; Return printf(ā€œ%cā€, i); } 2nd and 3rd round is technical interview. The position for which I was interview was core UNIX and c. Yes it is for system programming. The company has product name blade server. For their server they are creating their own command for their purpose. Example cd command.
