Round 2: Technical Interview – 1 (1-1:30 hour)

1. Introduction.
2. what games have you played?
3. C++ OOPs questions – explain 4 OOPs concepts. shallow copy and deep copy, copy constructor, types of polymorphism, etc.
4. OS questions – memory management, paging, virtual memory, virtual address space, CPU scheduling, etc.
5. Tic-Tac-Toe – Interviewer gave a whole code of a tic-tac-toe game along with the player status of positions. He asked me to explain and write code for a function that accepts player ID as an argument and returns true if player 1 has won or returns false (Preferred to use recursion).

Round 3: Technical Interview – 2 (1-1:30 hour)

1. Introduction.
2. Game development questions – how does the game work? what are the components?
3. Basic C++ questions – what are C++ standards?
4. DSA questions – which data structure gives the best search and insert time complexity, algorithms complexity-related questions, where we can use a linked list, queue and array in real life? etc.
5. 3D math questions – dot and cross product, real-life application of dot and cross product, vectors, matrix, etc.
6. OS questions – Concurrency, IPC problem and critical section, deadlock, semaphores and mutex, types of semaphores, the difference between semaphores and mutex, etc.
7. Computer Architecture – the difference between 32-bit and 64-bit architecture, advantages and disadvantages of 64-bit architecture over 32-bit architecture.

Round 4: HR round (20 min)
