Process
It was an off-campus opportunity. I applied through their portal.
Then I received an email with an assessment link which I had to give within a week; the link was valid for a week. It was stated that problem-solving and job simulation would be there. But there was one section from the tech stack as well, in which there was a bug and we needed to correct it. Even though one bug was easy and I was able to do that, I wasn't able to find the other bug.
There was one problem-solving question of a greedy algorithm, but the catch was that recognizing the pattern was really difficult.
Questions
Greedy algorithm, another was a Graph BFS problem
