Software Development Engineer (SDE) Interview Experience - Bengaluru, Karnataka
Process
Basic stack questions. Java depth questions, general, like what is new in Java 8 and how they work.
Previous work experience details on AI and ML. They asked me if I did anything other than AI/ML; I said no and realized that it was not the role I was hoping for.
I then said no to a few questions without even a pause. It is better to leave the role than to select the wrong one.
Questions
Code for Stack
Splitting functions, as I said I knew Python too.
Scraping questions.
