Interview Preparation Tips

Round: HR Interview
Experience: Even if we were to search around the world, it would be a truly difficult job to find someone like Deepali. As a Computer Science Graduate of IIT Bombay, she successfully bagged a job offer from an astounding company – Facebook. Even though it’s a rare feat, she doesn’t consider it a rare one. We at TopTalent.in got a chance to interact with Deepali Adlakha from IIT Bombay about what made this possible and what others can learn from this.In case you are wondering how the resume of a Facebook recruit looks like, you can download the resume by logging in.



QUES: How do you feel on achieving this rare feat?ANS: I don’t consider it as a ‘rare’ feat, many people have got such good offers in both present and past.QUES : What other offers did you get apart from Facebook?ANS: Facebook was one among my top preferences, I got the offer from Facebook and hence I was out of the placement process. So, one does not get more than one offer.

QUES : Can you brief us the interview process?ANS: Facebook had one coding test, after which there were three rounds of interview. All the interviews tested your technical knowledge.

QUES : Can you give us a brief account of what you felt was the toughest interview?ANS : I gave interviews to Facebook, Google and Microsoft. In all interviews, the student is tested on his/her thought process, how he/she arrives at the answer rather than just the answer.

QUES : What was your preparation strategy?ANS : I practised coding, answering algorithmic design questions. I had a rough overview of all my courses, hence I didn’t spend much time revising them.

QUES : What kind of skills do you think helped you getting this job?ANS: A student should know how to code, both on paper and on the system, that is it.

QUES : What resources did you consult? Where did you practice problems from?ANS: I used Hackerrank and Codechef for practicing problems.

QUES : Were grades a factor in you getting selected?ANS: Good grades is definitely a plus point, but it is neither necessary nor sufficient.

QUES : What’s your advice to students who are aiming for similar placement offers as yours?
Tips: Relax and prepare hard.
