Myntra Internship Interview Experience | On-Campus 2021

Online Coding Assessment: The online coding assessment consisted of 3 questions. One each of easy, medium, and hard difficulty. After this round, 11 students were shortlisted.

Interview Round 1(Technical – Duration: 60 minutes) The interviewer first introduced himself and then I was asked to introduce myself. I talked about my projects and technical interests. I was asked 2 coding questions followed by this. The HackerRank Code Pair platform was used for the interviews.

Questions asked were:

1. Stock buy and sell: I discussed the brute force approach first and then moved on to the most efficient approach.
2. Search in the rotated sorted array: I quickly mentioned linear search brute force approach and moved on to the binary search approach. Unexpectedly, I got stuck at a step and my mind went blank. The interviewer was nice and patiently waited for me to recollect. I was finally able to solve the question.

Interview Round 2(Technical – Duration: 60 minutes) After a few minutes of introduction, the following questions were asked:

1. Backspace string compare: I discussed the brute force approach in detail. The interviewer was very much involved in the interview and we brainstormed other approaches to the problem. I was also asked a few easy syntax-related questions, for example how the compiler operates ‘&&’ given a conditional expression. 
   Example: a && b  
   The system first checks if ‘a’ is false, if it is it returns false. Else it checks for ‘b’.
2. Rotate by 90 Degrees: As per the time left, I discussed a decent approach to this question.

Concluding Remarks: The interview was a very healthy experience. I am glad I was a part of it.

Verdict: Selected
