Positive ExperienceGot Offer

Process

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week.

I was interviewed for a platforms team as SSE. I had 4 technical rounds + 1 HR round. After confirmation of the offer, I again had one round of technical discussion with another team's manager.

All the first 3 technical interviewers were from the team I'm going to be hired for. Get your basics strong and expect a deep dive into DS and Algorithms.

Questions

Given a set of coins, how can you give a change with

  1. minimum number of coins
  2. maximum numbers of coins

A lot of questions were asked on my previous experience and projects.

Implement a binary tree using an array data structure.

How are Python's list implemented internally in C (not a hands-on but just theoretical approach)?

Swap the vowels in an array so that the first vowel will come last and the last vowel will come first and so on.

How will you implement REST API for Room allocation system? How will you design the architecture? How will you scale up?

There were some string manipulation questions.
