This is my experience of the intern selection process at FlyFin
Round 1: It was a pre-screening round, we had to fill out a google form where we were asked normal questions like CGPA, coding experience, and if we had any knowledge about react. I clicked on no there as I had no real experience with react/react-native. Candidates were shortlisted for the pre-placement talk and the coding round.
Round 2: The coding round had some aptitude questions. How they took the test was very unique. We had to chat with a bot and answer the questions in the chat. We were given two chances to answer a question correctly, in the second attempt partial marks would have been awarded. There were some time complexity-related questions as well. In the end, there were 2 coding questions.
- Given an nxn matrix find the sum of all the numbers which come in exactly half of the rows. The input was given in string format so we had to convert it to integer, this was the trickiest part of the question otherwise the problem was simple.
- We had to find a no p such that no of elements greater than p in the given array is exactly p. I was able to solve this problem partially. This problem might look simple but the value of n (size of the array) was <= 10^8 so it was quite tricky to do this in the given time limit, at least for me.
Round 3: This was a DS/Algo-based round and my interviewer was nice. I was given two problems to solve, the interview lasted for about 1 hr.
- String based problem.
- Similar to Count maximum points on same line, can’t remember the exact question.
Round 4: This was the HR round. I was asked normal behavioral questions like strengths and weaknesses and what I want in the future and he also asked me my favorite subject in 11th and 12th. Then he asked if I had any questions, and here I asked as many questions to him as he did to me. This I think increased my chances after kind of messing up the technical interview. To end this I would say that stronghold on DS/Algo can go a long way even if you are pretty average at the development
Happy Coding and good luck with your upcoming interviews!
