Process
I applied through a consultancy. After one week, I received an email regarding an online test and a pre-recorded video interview. The online test comprised one coding question, and the video interview had five behavioral questions.
Questions
The online test comprises one coding question with a 1-hour time limit.
Q: "Find the area of two intersecting rectangles."
Pre-recorded video interview questions:
