Based on the recruiter's email, I was expecting the conversation to include questions around my C++ coding skills and prior experience relevant to the role, and LeetCode-style coding in C++. However, the discussion only focused on the hiring manager

Three Data Science and Algorithm rounds were there. In each round, two questions of medium complexity were asked. After discussing the solution, I was asked to write the program. It was fine to use dummy code.
