Most companies' recruiters state that you can use any mainstream language during interviews. Ok, I _can_, but how does it affect the interview outcome? Say, if I choose C++, but the company is not a C++ shop? What if an interviewer doesn't read C++?
I'd especially welcome comments from folks from LinkedIn, Uber, Airbnb.

The companies I mentioned not, hence the question.
Less time coding gives you more time to optimize the code in iterations
I could imagine Python being an advantage - a Python coder can be half done with a problem by the time I finish typing "unordered_map", but Java?!
Besides, I think any programmer judges coding style as well, not just correctness. How my coding style can be judged by someone not reading C++? Especially if he's bent on "Object Oriented Programming"?
