3 Interview Rounds

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: Quant Puzzles combined with a few coding questions and one or two hardware questions.Some puzzles, like how many tyres are required for a car, to go 35000 km if one tyre can alone go for 20000? Solving puzzles and quant skills required.
Tips: Study a bit of algorithms and coding so that you can attempt that section as well. Was also asked questions like "Tell me about yourself".Then he asked what flaws would my BTP guide point out about my work. Then he proceeded to ask me a hardware question, and after that, he was just checking my software aptitude. Then he wanted to make sure that I am motivated enough even though I had a "low" CGPA and asked some questions to this end.Make sure that you attempt a good number of questions, even though there is negative marking. You can only score by attempting enough questions.

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: The interviewer was an alumni so there wasn't much fuss there. The interviewer was very friendly. Try and impress them in the technical round and make sure that you show considerable interest in the company and technical jobs as a whole throughout the interview.Maintain enthusiasm throughout the process.
Tips: Try and think aloud.
Take a sheet of paper and write down your thoughts instead of trying to work everything out in your head.
He will keep on giving hints - try and make the most of them.
If your CGPA is LOW, try and justify honestly - DO NOT fake anything.

General Tips: They were on the look out for people who had done a varied number of projects in several fields. That's as good as saying that they were looking for breadth in knowledge rather than depth.
Skill Tips: Apart from this company, I would urge you to try and prepare for CAT. It would remind you of your JEE days as well as improves your English and keep you up to date with your quant skills.
Skills: Math ability, Programming, Quant

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: The questions on Logical reasoning were tough and time consuming. The questions on programming were primarily on pointers and data structures. The section on Digital electronics was easiest with questions ranging from logic gates, flip flops & timing analysis.
Tips: Start with the section with which you feel comfortable that will enhance your confidence and you can solve the other sections with higher accuracy. Do brush up your concepts on programming and data structures. Keep practicing LR questions from books for CAT
Duration: 75 minutes

Round: Interview
Experience: There were 3 rounds of interview consecutively. The first one was majorly based on the CV, the interviewer asked about the projects and some extra curricular activities that I had done.The second interviewer asked me to write simple codes on arrays. There was a question on finding the number of paces where two numbers i & j have 1's in the same position in their binary representation. He also asked a simple puzzle- There are 3 boxes containing 2 R, 2 B and 1 R, 1 B balls. All the boxes are labelled incorrectly, How would you identify the correct labeling if  your allowed to draw just 1 ball.The third round was primarily tested knowledge on data structures. The questions were based on linked list, binary tree implementation using linked list and code for printing the elements of binary tree in a given order( in order in my case).
Tips: If your CV has good projects be prepared to answer the question why are you not going for higher studies.
