2 Interview Rounds

1

Aptitude Test Round

Refer prep insta for pattern and indiabix for practice.
There were Foundation section - Aptitude, Reasoning and Verbal
Then there was Advanced section - Advance Aptitude, Advance Reasoning and 2 Questions on Coding.
My exam slot - 20th August.

Foundation Aptitude was lengthy but doable problems. Reasoning was quite tough. Verbal was normal. For those who have a grip on English language and grammar it's very easy.
The Advanced section Aptitude was normal surprisingly- Class 11 and 12 maths (Probability, permutations and combinations, curve, quadratic equations, planes, imaginary number) and mcqs from Data Analysis was given which was easy to medium.
The Logical Reasoning section was purely based on logic. Like real use of your brain , or seating arrangement, etc more intuition based.

The coding round was medium to hard.
2 questions were asked. First was based on 0/1 knapsack and the second was a medium level one.

Navigation among questions: Not possible. You need to mark and option to proceed and submit that question.
Timer: Sectional timer was there. For foundation section a group timer and For advanced section timer for Apti and LR as a group and then Coding timer. No navigation between coding questions possible.

Tip: If you can't solve the first coding problem in 30 mins (like you aren't getting it) then move on and see if you can solve the next. Don't waste time.
Time management is required to solve and leave the problems that might consume a lot of time.
