Process

Applied online. On the second day, I got the call for a video interview. The questions were the same as mentioned on Glassdoor. Then, the very next day, I was invited for a technical phone screen. It lasted 30-40 minutes and I was asked 40-50 rapid-fire questions. Again, it was the same set of questions that are posted here on Glassdoor, with some coding snippets where I was asked for the output of the programs (6-7). Nothing was out of the box; they were really straightforward questions involving general coding practice in C, C++, and Java, some basic concepts, and some mathematical questions involving probability and set theory. I gave almost all correct answers, except for one or two maybe. I was rejected after 3 weeks from the interview. I'm not sure why I was rejected.

Anyways, my advice for anyone having this interview: please go through all the questions posted here and review some basic concepts from C, C++, Java, and basic probability and set theory. Make sure you answer all of them correctly.
