Process
OS + Networks questions in the beginning.
Coding questions in the second half - LeetCode medium level.
Make sure to prepare the OS and Networks basics before going for the interview.
Connection was not very good, so I could not hear the interviewer very well.
Questions
OS questions like: What is a process? What is swap space? etc.
