Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: The test was purely based on Data Interpretation. Every page had 3 charts and 5 objective questions based on those charts. There was severe time constraint in the paper and my selectivity among the questions proved beneficial in clearing the cut-off.
Duration: 1 hour
Total Questions: 30

Round: Case Study Interview
Experience: "Tell me about yourself" was the first question asked to me. I just told him a few things about myself mainly focusing on the financial projects I did. Then he gave me a trivial case study as follows,
"There are two economical classes, Prime and Sub-Prime, and I had to give a Motorcycle loan to one of them. Whom should I give?"
I was supposed to ask him any information that I would require to solve this case study. Whenever I used to get stuck he gave me hints to work upon. And finally, based on the value he gave me I could compare the profit from both the classes. The main thing about the case study was the way of solving it and how interactive was I with the interviewer.

Round: Case Study Interview
Experience: "Capital One reached its customers for new offers through postal mail. They had 2 kinds of postal services, A class and C class. In A Class, if the customer had changed his address then the postal service would update the address on the letter and it would reach the customer at the new address. In C Class, if the address is changed then the customer would not get the mail. I was supposed to tell which one of the postal service was better in two conditions, 1st when no. of mail to be made is fixed and 2nd when amount to be spend in mailing is fixed."
I found this case simpler than the earlier one. I managed to complete the case in just 20 minutes. The interviewer was very impressed with the speed with which I was able to solve the case. It was enough to make me realize that I had made it.
Tips: The main thing that you need to remember in Case Study of this sort is that you need to speak your mind. It helps the interviewer understand the way you are thinking. So if you have made some calculation mistake he wouldn

Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - Please confirm before appearing your expected CTC , Management is not good , It is product based but pay scale is very less . I cleared all round & in HR round my current CTC was compared to expected one , even I was holding good offer in hand . After that I haven't received any communication from them yes or no nothing. Giving salary like service based company and less number of people in technical team will only lead to work pressure without pay .

(2 Questions)

  • Q1. Does Java support pass by reference?
  • Ans. 

    Yes

    • Java uses pass by value for all variables, including object references.

    • When an object reference is passed as an argument, a copy of the reference is passed, not the actual object.

    • Modifying the reference inside the method will not affect the original reference outside the method.

    • However, modifications to the object's state inside the method will be visible outside the method.

  • Answered by AI
  • Q2. Explain Singleton Pattern
  • Ans. 

    Singleton pattern restricts the instantiation of a class to a single object.

    • Singleton pattern ensures that only one instance of a class exists throughout the application.

    • It provides a global point of access to the instance.

    • Commonly used in scenarios where a single instance needs to coordinate actions across the system.

    • Example: Database connection manager, logger, configuration manager.
