Process

A multiple-choice test comprised topics across all domains of Computer Science, including Networking, Infrastructure, Machine Learning/Hadoop (these were a tough ask), Operating Systems, and Application Security. There were also two programming questions, which were easy enough.

The questions were as follows:

  1. Given a word, find its value according to a certain rule (the alphabets were assigned values from a Fibonacci sequence).
  2. Given resources, their worth, and total time, find the maximum value you can obtain from them (this was a simple DP implementation).

First Interview:

The interview started with the basic "Tell me about yourself." The interviewer then asked a few questions on OOPs, specifically on Data Encapsulation, Inheritance, and Polymorphism. Following this, they asked one question on a binary tree.

I did not get through to the next round. There were three rounds of interview in total.
