Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: The test had 2 questions. One was doing subtraction/addition manually (Huge numbers so cannot cast them into any primitive type) and the other one was simple DP.
Total Questions: 2

Round: Other Interview
Experience: First Round was based on an algorithm and sample implementation (pen &paper). They were conducting rounds by the clock. Exactly 30 minutes each. Problem was a little complicated but not difficult. As far as I remember everyone got through that round.

Round: Other Interview
Experience: Second round was totally based on Systems. First they asked me to explain a couple of things on my resume. Secondly the conversation went to my projects. After that the interviewer asked me design problems. Design a URL Shortener. Design Thread Safe implementation of HashMap, etc., etc. I think this was their main criterion. They wanted people for systems related profile.

Round: Other Interview
Experience: Third round was again based on algorithm. (Minimum number of dice throws to complete of snakes and ladders). But it was more informal that the first couple of round. I gave a solution. He asked me to improve it. Gave me hints on the way. In the end we chatted a little about placements in general, interests, etc.

General Tips: Do's :
Keep cool and keep an open mind. UNDERSTAND the package breakup to make better informed
decisions.

Don’ts :
Don’t lose your nerve, no matter what. Shit happens (happened all the time to me), things don’t
happen as expected but remember whatever it is “IT TOO SHALL PASS”. Don’t get fixated on any
company.

Final Tips :
1. Relax.
2. Learn to read the package details (ask companies for it if they don’t give it)
3. Don’t come under peer pressure while applying to companies. Remember you don’t want to join
all the companies that come on Day 1 Slot 1. There were far better companies (from my point of
view) coming at a later stage.
4. Some Indian tech companies are really doing a great job. Nutanix, InMobi & BrowserStack are
some I can think of and because of them being here you would actually be working on great stuff as
opposed to other MNC offices in India.
5. At the same time there are some Indian startups you really wouldn’t want to join. Keep an eye out for them too.
