From DBMS:

  1. Explain indexes
  2. Difference between clustered and non- clustered indexes
  3. Some queries are given tables to join and perform some operations.

  2. Palindrome checking for a sentence and remove all special characters, upper cases.

That’s it

Third Round (Managerial Interview):

  2. Gave some scenarios and asked what I’ll do as a leader. Asked me ready for relocation or not.
  3. Asked me the preference work location languages I know.  Some general questions, and they’ll assess how we answer and behave

That’s it

Fourth Round (HR Round): Asked about myself and hobbies, family, interests, personal achievements, etc. Then he asked me some more general scenario questions. And asked me whether I’m comfortable with application development. Why Societe Generale? He asked me about financing and banking. 

That’s it.

At last, they took only 5, and I am one of them. Be confident and don’t panic anywhere. It’s okay if u don’t know some answers.

All the Best!!!
