Process

There were a total of 5 rounds (excluding the BR round), but I was rejected in the 2nd round.

The first round was an OA, which included 2 questions: one easy and one medium, along with some behavioral MCQs.

Round 1: Featured 2 DSA questions, both of medium difficulty. Round 2: Was intended to be an LLD round, but it did not go well.

Questions

In the LLD round, I was asked to design a school management system. I listed down multiple services, such as:

  • Course scheduling
  • Events (exams, parent-teacher meetings, co-curricular activities, accounts)

After this, the question was changed (we were already 20 minutes into the round).

The interviewer then asked if I knew how email systems work (like Gmail). To be honest, I didn't, nor was I prepared for it. So, I answered that I don't have much idea about it, just that they use the SMTP protocol.

Of course, the round went badly because I wasn't prepared, and I got rejected.

Was this helpful?
