Interview
First round was a online test held by careercup at the campus. Quetions were typically same as being posted on the sites.
After then there were 4 face to face interview rounds.
Interview rounds are purely Technical. Concern is shown for proper coding.
first interview round : 2 question were asked one from trees and other from semaphore and hash tables combined.
second interview round : this round deals with real life programming.1 program related to graph was asked. 5-6 theortical questions related to networking, computer architecture was asked
third round : 1 programming question related to binary tree was asked.
5-6 theorical question related to DBMS, C , object oriented design.
fourth round: technical and Hr mix. 3 programming question related to stacks, backtracking and nary trees.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
given a binary search tree with root node r. now a specific node n is changed to root. write a function so that the after modification tree remains binary search tree.
create a data structure for node of a nary tree other than child-sibling node. now a nary tree is given with cb node. convert it into a tree with the nodes defined by you. inorder traverse the tree.
That moment when the interviewer asked about finding indices in an array for a target sum was wild — I had just tackled something identical while prepping on PracHub. The interview included a technical round with another question about designing an in-memory LRU cache and a behavioral question about meeting tight deadlines. After a smooth discussion, I was told I'd received an offer, which I happily accepted. Overall, the process felt pretty straightforward and not overly challenging.

Interviewed for silicon team. Have only been asked about the domain specific knowledge in 1st round and system design in 2nd round and C coding in 3rd round.
The interviews were 50 mins each.
First round with hr screening - 2 leetcode questions then hr manager screening then the loop which consists of 4 interviews each an hour long. The 4 interview questions they asked where three medium leetcode questions. And one system design interview question about how to shadow deploy a test software to millions of users.
