Process

Applied to a link: college_us

If you are from a good university and have a good GPA, then you get a call; otherwise, there is no response.

Once you get a call, your resume is sent to different teams, and the teams that like it call you.

When you go for the interview, you are treated like a CEO – limo, hotel (two bathrooms :)).

The interview is pretty straightforward.

Then you return happy (usually!).

Questions

Simple, basic questions, usually:

  • Design pattern: Singleton
  • Java basics
  • Linked list

I was also asked a puzzle.
