Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - Round 1- The interview lasted about an hour. The interviewer was a no nonsense guy and was just concerned about the approach and my though process. Am not even sure if he even smiled throughout the interview.

Overall, I felt it was a great problem-solving exercise. Later I realised that fleet-optimisation was one of the major problems Swiggy (and this interviewer) was working on, and hence this question was
related.

Round 2- The interview would have lasted at least 1.5 hours. The interviewer
was extremely friendly and a great listener - he encouraged disagreements and looked
for the rationale behind decision making and structure in thinking.

Round 3- The interview would have lasted at least 1.5 hours. The panel was friendly and from their depth of questions/ cross-questions it felt as if they were working on the this problem itself i.e. designing restaurant’s menu pages on Swiggy. It was pretty
conversational and not at all a stress-interview, with more focus on customer-empathy, design sense and product sense.

Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - Round 1- The first round went on for 1.5 hours. The interviewer was very cooperative and understanding. It was more like a conversation. No frameworks were used in this round.

Only prior knowledge about the industry, app design and swiggy as a product helped.Practicing Pricing questions helped in structuring the answer.

Round 2- Subscribe to Ken. Great reads. read company blogs and industry reports.
Understand how the company runs and earns money. Ask questions. Read about competitors (Dunzo/Zomato/etc in this case) and understand how they solve a similar problem (if they are).

Subscribe to Ken.
