Postman conducted its Software engineering internship drive this year also like previous years. The type of questions and patterns were basically the same. And they were offering a six months internship with a stipend per month with full-time opportunity after successful completion. The package was depending on the internship performance.

So, there were Four Rounds:

  1. Online Coding Round
  2. Technical Interview 1
  3. Technical Interview 2
  4. H.R Round.

Round 1 – Online Coding Round: This round is conducted on the Hackerrank platform and it consists of 3 Coding Questions with 17 MCQ based on basic computer science subjects. Coding questions consist of a string question, a typical BFS question, and one problem on Dynamic Programming. MCQ questions are basically from Operation Systems, DBMS, Computer Networks.

Round 2 – Technical interview -1: After clearing round 1, I got a mail for a technical interview that is scheduled on Google Meet. In this round, I have been asked to explain my projects and previous Internship. After that interviewer asked me questions on Operating systems, DBMS, and Computer Networks. It is about 45 minutes round.

Sharing the Question’s interviewer asked:

  1. Tell me about your Projects and Internship.
  2. Difference between a container and an image in Docker.
  3. What is System calls and explain it’s working?
  4. What is a Kernel and what are the types of Kernel available?
