Process
It was very pleasant. I had three rounds of interviews.
The first round was easy. It had some DSA questions to solve, which I did.
The second round had some MCQs on BDMS, OS, CN, and DSA. They were medium level, but I was able to solve them.
In the third round, they asked me some simple questions on the projects I had done.
Questions
He asked me some DSA questions, mainly about linked lists.
