BNY Mellon Interview Experience for SDE Internship (On-Campus)

BNY Mellon visited my college for SDE Interns around October 2023. GeeksForGeeks helped me a lot in preparing for the coding tests and interviews.

1st Round (Online) 120 mins

The first round was an online round. There were 4 Coding questions divided into one easy, two medium and one hard question.

24 students were shortlisted after this for Technical Interviews.

2nd Round (Technical Interview)

The Interviewer asked a combination of questions which consisted of DSA, OS, DBMS and OOPs concepts.

Two DSA questions of easy level were asked to be written on paper including:

1. Duplicate elements in an array -> https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/problems/find-duplicates-in-an-array/1
2. Missing number in an array -> https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/problems/missing-number-in-array1416/1?page=1&sortBy=submissions

Other questions from OOPs and OS included were:

1. Collision Prevention Techniques

4. Exceptional Handling
5. Null Pointer Exception
6. Inheritance, Constructors, Virtual Functions

Other questions like Can we compile a program without main, Object call in main and Result of printing elements in main without initializing in default constructor were asked to check the presence of mind.

After this round, 14 students were shortlisted for the HR Round.

3rd Round (HR Interview)

It was basically a round to know more about the candidates, where firstly they discussed about my resumes like projects and experiences. Later questions like Educational Background, Family, Future Plans and Company related perspective were asked.
13 students were able to make it through this round; fortunately, I was one among them.

NOTE:

Try to have continuous conversations with the interviewer and discuss your solution. I hope this helps in your interview preparation, All the Best! Just be yourself during the Interview and be confident while answering and most importantly “Never say a NO to the Interviewer”!
