Trainee Software Engineer Interview Experience - Dehradun, Uttarakhand
Process
First, it was an online exam, then the communication exam, then PI: technical and HR.
In the technical interview: I was asked about myself and then a few basic OOP's concepts. After that, a basic coding question and then a few DBMS queries over a given table.
After that, we were having a general conversation about my projects and about a few drawbacks I would like to correct in today's payment apps, etc.
I got selected.
Then in the HR interview: We were discussing real-life scenarios in offices, how to tackle them, and my love for traveling.
