I was contacted by a recruiter for the Software Engineer position.
The initial round was a phone screen where the interviewer asked me questions based on my skills mentioned on my resume and then presented a coding question. It was pretty straightforward.
Later, I was invited for an on-site interview and had five rounds. Each round consisted of discussing experience on a project mentioned on the resume and a whiteboard coding question.
The questions were based on knowledge of Data Structures and Algorithms. The focus was more on solving the problems rather than achieving optimal time.
One round, they asked me to implement a HashMap. The interviewer was not too clear about what was actually required.
