4 Interview Rounds

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: TELEPHONIC INTERVIEW
Experience: By:Talent Scout @Google:
* Questions from Project :
Spell Corrector:
How it works , Bigram and ngram model approach, etc.* Why should one use merge sort over quick sort and vice-versa.* You have a very large array of ‘Person’ objects .Sort the people in increasing order of age .General :Then came the exciting part when he asked me to choose location b/w Google Paris(Text-Speech Team) or Google London(Android Core Team).He explained how Google work’s on their projects !About Google interview process ( 2-3 phone interview + 4-5 onsite interview in London ).

Round: Phone interview + coding 1
Experience: By:Software Developer @Google :

* Questions from Project:Bi-directional Sync b/w mysql and sqilte db.
* Given a number , check if it can be represented in 5^n form , where n is positive integer .
* Given a string of words with lots of spaces between the words , remove all the unnecessary spaces like
  input:  I   live   on     earth    output: I live on earth

Round: Phone interview + coding 2
Experience: By:Software developer @Google :* Optimize a^b* How would you split a search query across multiple machines?* You need to develop the game Snake. What data structures will you use? Code your solution.
Tips: Some additional hints for the interview:Clarify the question – make sure you understand everything.Try to find the most efficient solution.Come up with solutions quickly: even if its a brute force solution. Always iterate away from the original solution.Before you start coding explain why you’re approaching it that way ,its ok to start off with a naive solution and try to make it more efficient.Explain the rationale behind the steps you are doing.Think out loud, keep things technical. The engineers will give you hints: take a hint! They are there to help you!Always write “compilable” code.Mind edge cases. Find bugs in your code.

4 Interview Rounds

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: 1) N people were in a party and were seated in a circular manner. If each of the two present inthe party, except the pairs that were adjacent,sang a song and If a song lasted for 2 mins and28 mins was taken for singing the songs, find N.

2) Let’s play a game of Russian roulette. You are tied to your chair and can’t get up. Here’s agun. Here’s the barrel of the gun, six chambers, all empty. Now watch me as I put a singlebullet in the gun. I close the barrel and spin it. I put a gun to your head and pull the trigger.Click. Lucky you! Now I’m going to pull the trigger one more time. Which would you prefer,that I spin the barrel first, or that I just pull the trigger

3) Five pirates discover a chest full of 100 gold coins. The pirates are ranked by theiryears of service, Pirate #5 having five years of service, Pirate #4 four years, and so on down toPirate #1 with only one year of deck scrubbing under his belt. To divide up the loot, theyagree on the following:The most senior pirate will propose a distribution of the booty. All pirates will thenvote, including the most senior pirate, and if at least 50% of the pirates on board acceptthe proposal, the gold is divided as proposed. If not, the most senior pirate is forced towalk the plank and sink to Davy Jones’ locker. Then the process starts over with thenext most senior pirate until a plan is approved.These pirates are not your ordinary swashbucklers. Besides their democratic leanings, they arealso perfectly rational and know exactly how the others will vote in every situation. Emotionsplay no part in their decisions. Their preference is first to remain alive, and next to get asmuch gold as possible and finally, if given a choice between otherwise equal outcomes, to havefewer pirates on the boat.Suppose that you’re the most senior pirate (#5). Propose a distribution of coins that keepsyou alive, that maximizes your gold, and that will be accepted

4) There is one highland where planes get fuel. A plan can cover the half of the world with fulltank. A plane can transfer fuel from one plane to the other in the air.How many planes are required to make one plane cover the entire world once. Starting point ofthe travel is the Highland and coming back to the same Highland.All the other planes giving fuels to this Plane should also come back to the same highland andthey don’t have to cover the entire world.

5) It rains 3 days a week. When it rains there is Thunderstorm.The probability of Thunderstorm falling on the ground is 1/42000.A Golfer plays golf on Saturday and Sunday. What is the probability of Thunderstorm falling onthat Golfer?

6) One Dominoes (2*1) can be placed on two adjacent squares in a Chess board.How many dominoes can be placed in an 8 * 8 chess board if a row is already filled and cannotbe used for placing Dominoes?

7) Given a square of 10cm each side with the four semi circles inside as shown in the abovediagram, find the area of the shaded portion
8) Party of 5 women and 5 men.A committee consists of 3 women and 2 menThe total number of ways to form this committee.

Round: Test
Experience: They took us to the lab for this on and we were each given a paper with a program on it. It was all mixed as in each person got a different paper, You have around an hour to finish coding. after which you have to explain your code.They also given you wrong or incorrect inputs and see how your code handles these exceptions:-1) Program to print a pyramid of stars



2) Write some code for time complexity O(log log n)



3). heap sort



4). Write code to find the kth maximum of n elements



5). Finding the palindrome in the given set of strings



6). The maximum sum from the first to the last line. i.e. 1+2+4+14,1+3+5+18,1+2+5+14………



CODE: SELECT ALL



1



2 3



4 5 7



12 14 18 19



7). Given a Tree, write code to find the mirror image of that tree.



8). Implement FLAMES game



This is a game which predicts the compatibility between given two names.



All the common characters in the given two names are removed. The total number of distinct



characters in both the names are circled around the word FLAMES.



so the character at position x%strlen(FLAMES) in the word FLAMES is removed at each step till it



gets one character. Also the character removed in every step should not be considered for the



next step.



x – Total number of distinct characters in the given two names.



F – Friend



L – Love



A – Affection



M – Marriage



E – Enemy



S – Sister



9). Given a sentence, reverse the words in the sentence



Input:



“I am a boy”



Output:



“boy a am I”

Round: HR Interview
Experience: This round lasted for around 30 minutes. It more of a character analysis round.With a lot of HR type questions. These are some of the questions asked to me and my firends: A self intro (you have to keep saying things until they tell you to stop).referhere for more details about giving a self introMost of the questions were focused on Patient,Hospital,Insurance(daaa. its medical oriented). So they asked me to create a scenario connecting those three entities(I told them a about how a patients insurance should be checked before giving treatment unless it is an emergency).They are checking how efficiently you can relate them . Most of my  friends got puzzles wrong.You may expect many puzzles in the first round. That is puzzles you weren’t able to solve. In my case the interviewer helped me with hints it took a while but i finally got it right. in this round , THEY CONCENTRATE  ON HOW WILLING YOU ARE TO LEARN and at the same time HOW WILLING YOU ARE TO SHARE WITH OTHERS.Just make sure you highlight those qualities, it will definitely impress the AthenaHealth folks In some cases they also ask you to explain the logic used in the coding roundMake sure you have pre-made answer on what you are interested in i.e., whether you want to be a PROGRAMMER or QA analyst. But don’t be adamant be flexible.

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: Compared to the other round this is more tech oriented. Lot more tech questions. It is of normal difficulty and is not that hard to clear,you only need to know the basics.Here are some sample type questions:Very basic of Data Structure and Oracle knowledge enough.Lots of simple questions from data structures(insert into heaps etc). They did not ask to write code for DS, but rather  to explain the logic through diagrams you can expect some puzzle question too here They don’t want u to give up if you don’t know an answer.So they throw hints at you all the time For some complicated question, they expect how much you brainstorm ideas in solving  So once u start guessing things they  will help you with the problem in some cases they said stuff like “good job so far all you have to do is this and this and you will have the answer” If possible try to learn some basics of Perl this will help you very much at the end ,even if you don’t know ..its not much of a problemDATA STRUCTURES..1. Which is better B-trees or hash table?



2. What is the data structure used for indexing purposes in database?



ALGORITHMS…



1. Discussion regarding merits and demerits of sorting algorithms



2. Explain heap sortThey selected 5 people from a total of 300 that attended.The package is 4.2 lpa with internship



The results were announced really fast like an hour after last interview. Also the main areas to focus on are:



DATA STRUCTURE, PUZZLES, ORACLE and PERL

Interview Questions

  • Q1. Little discussion on my project
  • Q2. Given a chessboard and the initial position of horse. If “n” is the number of steps the horse can make then what is probability that it goes out of board ?

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: They did not expect any code in this round. An algo or pseudo code is fine.



1) You are given 2 vessels with capacity M liters and N liters capacity and infinite supply of water. You need to find the minimum number of steps required to get P liters. Any of the below action is considered a step



     a) Filling vessel with water



     b) Emptying vessel



     c) Pouring water from one vessel to another vessel.



2) Given n sets each containing m integers. You need to create MinDiff set by picking exactly 1 element from each set. The difference between the maximum and minimum elements in the MinDiff set should be minimum.



eg: for the sets {30, 20, 10, 40},{ 22, 33, 44, 99},{ 16, 17, 18, 19} min diff set is {19, 20, 22}. Max and min elements in MinDiff set are 22 and 19 and their difference is 3.

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: 1) you will be given the binary representation of the numbers in the form of 2D array.eg: r1- 00001

r2- 00100

r3- 01010

r4- 00110

r5- 00111 This means the elements are 1, 4, 10 , 6 and 7.

A number “n” is given. Let us say that n can be formed by doing bitwise OR operation on rows of given matrix. What is the minimum number of rows that needs to be deleted from the matrix so that “n” can never be formed by doing the OR of the rows.

If n is 14(01110) then it can be formed by doing r2|r3 or r3|r4. You can prevent n formation either by deleting {r2,r4} or {r3}. But {r3} has least number of elements so it is the required set.2) Find the average of mid 50% of elements in the running stream of integersI have not cleared round-II so no further questions.
