Language : Any

This was like a small project where we have to use oops concept to build this game and pass the given test cases.There were 4 test cases and time of 8 hr was given to solve this problem. I started to code the problem in CPP and it took me around 3 hrs to understand the question code the solution. Even after 3 hrs I was able to pass the 3 test cases out of 4 so I took around 1 more hour to debug the code and get the 4th test case pass.

They took 10-15 days to announce the result of round 1 , they might have gone through the codes to check the plagiarism and oops concepts used. They shortlisted only 3 students  for the next round.

Round 2: Technical Interview 1(1 hr)

It was a virtual interview with a Senior Software Engineer. I was asked the following  questions:

•  
• Introduction.
• Which is your fav question which you have solved on leetcode? I said knapsack problem then he firstly said to explain it and then asked to code it down and also needed to run it.
• A medium level DSA question based on string , he gave some time to think and then code in one go without any error or mistake so I took my time and then started with the code.
• What is REST API??
• What are verbs in REST API??
• Difference between PUT, PATCH AND POST?
• Few questions on Database.
• Some basic OOPS questions.
• Which OOPS concepts you used in the code of assessment?
• Few questions on Project.
• Few questions on Django .

Overall take away from the interview is that , study your resume properly , most of the questions will be based on that.

Round 3: Technical Interview 2 (30 min)

It was also a virtual interview with a manager . This interview was just to make a technical conversation with a manager so that he gets to know about my technical skills more. Again most of the questions were based on my resume so basically they tested that I have not lied in my resume . Questions on Database, REST API , Django, and core CS fundamental were asked. Also one easy DSA question was asked with code which was just like a formality question.
