Placement Rounds:
There were a total of three rounds,which is as follows:
Round 1 :
- Aptitude test – The basic concepts of aptitude and logical reasoning are sufficient to clear the Aptitude test.
- It also had a section related to technical questions where questions related to database,OS,data structure, OOPs were asked. Basic knowledge about these concepts is enough to ace this section.
- Coding questions-Practice of HackerRank’s medium level Problem Solving questions and the appropriate use of data structures while coding would be enough for the candidate to ace the coding questions.
- This youtube channel provides important techniques for aptitude and logical reasoning. https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=carrier+ride
- These are some sample coding questions, practicing them will help:

They conduct exam in ELitmus Platform:
eLitmus pH Test- It has a decent difficulty level.It is an aptitude test consisting of multiple choice questions in 3 sections as Quantitative Aptitude, Verbal Ability, Analytical Reasoning.Each section has 20 questions for 200 marks. Hence, each question carries 10 marks each. The total marks allotted for 60 questions are 600. The candidate has to solve these 60 questions in the time duration of 2 hours.The negative marking scheme of eLitmus pH test is also unique. In eLitmus pH test, every wrong answer carries negative marks in certain cases. The marks reduced will depend on the candidates’ performance.If more than 25% of the questions attempted are wrong, then, a negative marking of 0.5 is deducted from the total marks scored by the candidate.If less than or equal to 25% of the questions attempted are wrong, then no marks are deducted.There are many model eLitmus papers available on Internet, practicing them would help.One can access additional information about the elitmus test and practice question papers by visiting https://www.elitmus.com/.
Round 2 : Technical Interview
The technical interview questions were related to the following subjects:
- Data Structures:
Stack,Queue,linkedList is a must and be well versed with Trees,Graph and their operations.Practice data structures coding questions from leet code or hacker rank.
2. Data Algorithms :
Basic Searching and Sorting Algorithms with their complexity is a must and also be acquainted with backtracking & dynamic programming concepts.
3. DBMS:
Be familiar with the basics of DBMS and practice different kinds of SQL queries.
4. Unix commands:
Unix concepts are not that important comparatively but have an idea about basic commands used in unix. This link might help with the revision of unix concepts.https://www.interviewbit.com/unix-interview-questions/
5. OOPs concept:
Complete knowledge of OOPs features and its implementation in any one of object oriented programming languages( For eg: Inheritance, Abstract Classes and Interface in Java).
6. Operating System:
Be well revised with concepts like Deadlock,Threads, Synchronization, Race condition and so on.
7. Computer Networks:
Knowledge of basic networking concepts and complete understanding of OSI/TCP model is sufficient.
8. Technologies you have worked with:
You can also be asked questions on the domains and technology stack you have used For example React and NodeJS, ML etc.
Apart from theory questions there will always be questions asked from your projects and past internship experience mentioned in your resume.
