Hi /g/, I have an software engineer internship phone interview tonight and I don't feel prepared. The subject of the job is remote software for multiple in house tools, mostly c++ I think. Anything to read up on or any resources that would be useful for me within the next 8 hours?

I interviewed for Yahoo and they literally asked me fizzbuzz. Most companies won't actually do this though.

Ask clarifying questions until you can reduce the problem into something you do know.

>Ask clarifying questions until you can reduce the problem into something you do know.
This. Don't be afraid to be humble, if you're totally stumped ask for a nudge in the right direction.

Fizzbuzz is some absurd shit, if someone actually asked me to solve it for an interview I would assume their company has no standards. All it proves is that you know a programming language's syntax and aren't retarded.

Repeat the question
Examples--input x results in y, edge cases, etc
Ask any questions you have
Code--write it
Test--run examples through it to see if they work
Optimize--make it more efficient,
