Interview Preparation Tips

Round: interview
Experience: Interview began with a very interesting question that if I was given 2 year time what would I work upon which would prove beneficial for the company. Basically, I was given a chance to show how innovative I could be. Then they asked two questions from my courses: one from Convex Optimization and other from Information Theory. This followed with one coding question. They told me to write full code. I don’t remember exactly but something based on doubly linked list. After this, they asked two puzzles directly from Pratik Poddar’s blog. I was able to answer all their questions.


Round: Questions
Experience: They selected 5 students for 2nd round. They gave 3 questions. One from algorithm, one from designing of a data structure and third was crazy guy on airplane puzzle. I was able to do 2 questions but got confused in one question. Result: 3 were selected out of 5. I was the wait listed candidate and 1 out of those 5 was rejected.
