1. Online Assessment (OA) Usually conducted on platforms like Codility, HackerRank, or AMCAT.

Duration: 90–120 minutes.

Format:

• 2–3 coding problems (DSA-focused).
• Difficulty: Easy to Medium-Hard.
• Topics: Arrays, Strings, Trees, Dynamic Programming, Graphs, Hashing, Sliding Window.

Sometimes includes MCQs on CS fundamentals (OS, DBMS, CN).

Tip: Practice on LeetCode (Medium), especially Microsoft-tagged problems.

✅ 2. Technical Interviews (2–3 Rounds) Each round is 45–60 mins.

Focus:

• Data Structures & Algorithms (most important).
• Problem-solving approach (not just the code, but how you think).
• Complexity analysis (Time & Space).
• Core CS concepts: OOP, DBMS, OS, Computer Networks.
• Coding language flexibility (Java, C++, Python preferred).

Sample Questions:

• Design an LRU cache.
• Implement autocomplete suggestions.
• Merge K sorted lists.
• Find shortest path (Graph problem).

Expect follow-ups like:

• “What if input size is 10^7?”
• “Can you optimize further?”
• “Write test cases.”
