Punjab Engineering College (PEC)
I was interviewed in Oct 2020.
Round duration - 65 minutes
Round difficulty - Medium
It was 24 hours window for the online round from 8 Oct 10:30 am to 9 Oct 10:30 am. There were 7 MCQ problems related to c++, java, DBMS, and operating systems. And 2 coding problems with one easy and one moderate level difficulty for question, we were supposed to write the whole program but for other question, the function was to be written only. I was able to solve the first problem fully and the second 50%, you are required to pass test cases.
Round duration - 90 minutes
Round difficulty - Medium
The interviewer asked me questions about projects, general discussion, and 3 coding questions based on linked list, arrays, and binary tree.
I gave optimum approach for every question.
Tip 1 : First Go through all the concepts of Data Structures and algorithms, I have taken Coding ninjas course c++ interview preparation.
Tip 2 : Try to solve all the problems by yourself then it will be meant for you, if you can't solve them after 30-45 minutes of time then see the solution of it, and for this, I used to consult TA and mentors on coding ninjas course.
Tip 3 : Have confidence in yourself, if you can't solve it initially, gradually you will be able to solve the problems. Hard work pays off.
Tip 4 : Note down the main information's about your project like what you have done in the project and what difficulties you have faced, it will be a great way to tackle questions about the project in the interview.
Tip 1 : Keep it simple and mention what you actually know and achieved.
Tip 2 : Mention your institute email-id if you have, it adds weight to the resume
Tip 3 : Use the "Built/created/made X using Y to achieve Z" format when writing about projects or work done.
