Trainee Software Engineer Interview Experience - New Delhi, Delhi
Process
Worst interview process. There were around 200 candidates, and they were taking interviews in a rush. The recruiter just asked for my introduction. My profile is entirely data science-based. I have 1 year of internship experience also, but all he considered were out-of-resume questions, like Blockchain. There were no coding questions, no DSA, no DBMS, and no ML algorithms. He just wound up the interview in 10 minutes.
