It was a weekend drive. I was constantly getting calls to interview for a Hyderabad location. As I wanted to stay in Bangalore, I was ignoring those calls. Then, a recruiter called me to attend an interview on a Saturday. More than 50 candidates turned up for the interview.

Round 1: He asked questions on array problems and then asked how I would approach them using C++. These were simple problems, like binary search, etc. I was confident and answered all questions, thinking I would clear Round 1. He then told me to wait outside, and HR would provide feedback. The HR called me and told me I could leave for the day. I did not like it when I was not given any feedback about what I missed in the interview.

Questions like:

• In an array, how will you find coprime numbers?
• How will you use binary search?
