I applied via Campus Placement and was interviewed in Dec 2023. There was 1 interview round.
(1 Question)
- Q1. Find loop in a linklist
- Ans.
To find a loop in a linked list, use Floyd's Cycle Detection Algorithm.
Use two pointers, slow and fast, to traverse the linked list.
If there is a loop, the fast pointer will eventually meet the slow pointer.
Once they meet, move one pointer back to the head and start moving both pointers one node at a time until they meet again.

I applied via Job Fair and was interviewed in Mar 2022. There was 1 interview round.
(3 Questions)
- Q1. Reversed a linked list
- Ans.
Reversing a linked list involves changing the direction of the pointers in the list.
Iteratively swap the next and previous pointers of each node in the list
Recursively reverse the rest of the list and then change the next pointer of the current node
Use a stack to push each node onto the stack and then pop them off to create the reversed list
- Q2. MinStack, implement a stack with o(1) to get the min value
- Ans.
Implement a stack with O(1) to get the min value.
Use two stacks, one for the actual values and one for the minimum values
Push the new value onto the value stack and compare it with the top of the minimum stack
If it's smaller or equal, push it onto the minimum stack as well
When popping a value, check if it's the minimum and pop from the minimum stack if so
- Q3. Implement array with o(1) setAll, set all the array to this value in o(1)
- Ans.
Implement array with O(1) setAll to set all values to a given value.
Create an array of strings with a fixed size.
Create a variable to store the value to be set.
When setAll is called, assign the value to the variable.
When accessing any element of the array, return the value stored in the variable.
This approach ensures that all elements of the array are set to the same value in constant time.

Interview Preparation Tips
Experience: First round was a simple round which involved 10 multiple choice questions and 3 coding questions on hackerrank platform.
Round: Technical Interview
Experience: Mainly on topics like networks, data structures and algorithms, operating systems. The interviewers looked for people who have had prior experience in web development and asked questions regarding web development in depth too.
Tips: I recommend everyone to read the book titled, 'Cracking the Coding Interview' as it was helpful in my approach to an interview.
General Tips: The one major thing that would give you the edge in joining Myntra would definitely be exposure to web development. Since it is not a part of the curriculum , it's all the more important for you to familiarize yourself with web development. In fact, a few projects in the same field would put you in a very advantageous position to get the job.
Skill Tips: 1. Start your placement preparations well ahead, no point regretting later.
2. Keep a concise resume. Do not take your resume to several pages.
3. Do not neglect aptitude preparation. Many people do this mistake and end up not clearing the first round for several companies.
4. Be thorough with your basics across all subjects. (Do not neglect any subject, even they you may like a few and dislike the others.)
5. Keep in mind, the interviewers are really friendly and try to make sure that you're not nervous during the interview. All they want to do is to test you. Be confident and give it your best shot.
