ROUND 1 (Online coding and aptitude round): This round had about 23-25 Mcqs and 1 coding question.
- The coding question was simple but I was able to get only 12 out of 15 test cases and I still can’t figure out why the rest three test cases failed because run-time errors kept coming and the description of the question may have missed something because I made sure to cover all possible edge cases. The Mcqs wasn’t tough but time-consuming to a certain extent.
- The Mcqs were in the topics of aptitude, logical reasoning, programming, and DBMS.Try to solve as many questions as possible as this will be a huge elimination round.
A total of about 200 students wrote this round.
ROUND 2 (Group discussion): The following day group discussions and interviews happened. About 60 were shortlisted for this round and we were split into 5 teams with each team having about 12 students.
- We were given a topic initially, and each student was asked to individually talk about it for 2 minutes .
- The interviewer called out our names one by one. A preparation time of 2 minutes was given, thus the starting few students didn’t have a lot of time to prepare.
- Since I was called to talk relatively towards the end I had an advantage.
- Then later we were asked to discuss about the topic as a group about the topic for about 10-15 minutes. Make sure you speak at least 1 or 2 times and say some valid points.
- Then finally the interviewer would again call out student names and ask us to conclude the topic in about 30 seconds.
- The most important factor in this round is speaking so make sure you speak as much as possible without creating a commotion.
- In my opinion, a bit of luck is also required in this round and good communication skills are a must along with confidence.
- It was a non-technical GD and my topic was ‘Impact of AI in our general lives – Pros and Cons
ROUND 3 (Technical Interview): 23 students were shortlisted for this round. The technical interview was for about 30 minutes.It was based on the things you had mentioned in your resume. Since ,my resume had front-end web development projects I was asked questions in that domain. I was also asked about web-development projects I had done in front-end.
- Since I had used HTML, CSS, and Javascript technical questions were also asked in that .
- The difficulty was easy-medium level.
- Then I was asked a DSA coding question.
- The question was to find out all the duplicates in a string and print out the duplicate characters followed by the count of duplicates and finally followed by the indexes where they are found. I used a hash map and solved it.
- I was nervous and took a bit more time than usual. The main aspect interviewer looked for is the approach and getting the desired output comes second.
ROUND 4 (HR): The final HR round happened 1 day later. About 14 students were shortlisted for this round.
- The interview was for about 20 minutes. It was like a normal HR round.
- Some questions I was asked were to introduce myself and I was asked to say what I knew about the company.
- I was also asked about my weaknesses, hobbies, etc. I was then asked a situation-based question.
- The situation based question I was asked was that if I was in a boat with two other people – my brother and my friend and if I can save only one of them when the boat collapses who would I save and why?.
TIP: Try to be as honest as possible for this round and read about the company and go for this round. Be confident when answering.
I received the results the next day. A total of 11 students were finally selected and I was one among them.
