Process
The process began with an initial online coding test, followed by three rounds of interviews.
During the interviews, candidates were asked basic questions on data structures, algorithms, and Object-Oriented Programming (OOP).
There was also a design interview.
The coding test was of average difficulty and required coding solutions for a few data structure and algorithm problems.
Questions
Basic questions on Data Structures and Algorithms, and OOP.
