MindTree Interview Experience (On-Campus) 2023

Round 1: The first round is the Aptitude round in which you will be answering MCQs on the SHL platform. If you get a good score (or a top score to be precise), you get to move on to the coding round.

Unfortunately, I couldn’t make it to the coding round.

Round 2: (Technical Interview): It was also held on the SHL platform where we had to wait in a queue in order to get our chance of interview.
The interview started with an introduction from both sides. The interviewer was quite polite and shared a brief introduction about himself and his experience in MindTree. Then he asked for my introduction. Then the following questions were asked:

• Which language are you proficient in? (I answered Java).
• Explain the pillars of OOPS.
• Write a program to check if a number is a power of 2. (I first explained the brute approach followed by the optimized approach). 
  I was asked only the logic. https://leetcode.com/problems/power-of-two/
• What do you mean by Cloud Computing? (Resume-based – since my major domain was Cloud Computing).
• What is Kubernetes?
• Difference between Docker and Containers?
• What is Normalization in DBMS?
• Write an SQL query to print the Second Highest Salary from a given table. 
• Some more basic resume-based questions.

Round 3: (HR Interview): She asked for a basic introduction about myself. Then she asked the following questions:

• Explain your projects.
• What was your contribution to each project?
• Are you open to relocation? Will your family members agree with it?
• Are you aware of the Bond? (I was not aware of this so she explained about the bond in MindTree).

Verdict: SELECTED

Overall, the Interview process will be easy to moderate depending on how well you are aware of your core-domain concepts. 

Make sure you have a good grip on the following:

• OOPS Concepts (very important)
• Basic DSA (At least you should be proficient with basic data structures like Arrays, Strings, LinkedList, etc.)
• DBMS (SQL – Very important: You’ll be asked this in 99% of interviews).
• Your Resume (Interviewers are smart enough to identify your weak points in the resume, so make sure you thoroughly read your resume before the interview as you can be asked anything from it! Never write false things on your resume!!).

Believe in yourself. You can do it!
