I had applied for hashedin in april through their career page, my online test was scheduled in last week of april.
STEP 1(Online Test): Online test was consist of 3 coding problems ranging between easy to medium.
- First two question were based on array you just had to keep edge test cases in mind and you were good, last question was from dp,
- i was able to solve 3 of them.
STEP 2(Technical Interview 1 ’45 min’): After first round my first technical interview was scheduled on 14 may but due to covid situations I had to rescheduled it recruitment team was nice they pushed to first week of june. Interview started with very cliched question tell me about yourself. After that interviewer asked about oops and projects and then asked me 2 question:

STEP 3(Technical Interview 2 ‘1.5 hr’): Interview started with asking about well being and then interviewer jumped on to oops and dbms.
- After that he asked me about basic data structures and some question on hash maps.
- Then he told me choose between food ordering system or Online shopping, I choose food ordering, and then i was asked to create all the table that will be used and specify the relation among them. And then he asked me a complex query, firstly I thought i will be not able to do it but i thought i will write the logic atleast it took me 5-8 min to do it and interviewer was satisfied with my query.
- Then i was asked to create classes and methods for tic tac toe game.
