Process

First Round: HR Non-Technical.

Second Round: Technical questions in C, C++, and Java.

Half of the questions involved finding the output of given code snippets (shared via Webx).

Some example codes:

c main() { const float pi = 3.14; pi = 5.40; printf(‘%f’,&pi); }

c int main(void) { int a = 5; float b = a/2; printf("b=%f",b); return 0; }

Questions

I was asked about Data Structures and Algorithms: NP-Complete problems and some related examples.

One question was about Merge Sort.
