The test was from 10 pm to 11:30 pm at night, Since we had to give the test from home so it was not an uncomfortable timing for me. The test was conducted on hackerrank. Personally I find Hackerrank a better test platform than others like Amcat or Mettle.

This interview was at 10 am in the morning and was taken by a SDE 3 of the company who had a very great background in Competitive Coding.
The interview started with me introducing myself. The interviewer then gave me a google doc which had 2 coding questions written . He asked me to go through the first question and explain the approach. After which he asked me to code the solution as well. Same procedure was followed for the second question. The most difficult part in using Google Doc to write code is that it doesn't has automatic indentation like the code editors, so I had to put much efforts in keeping my code readable.
Given an array of positive integers, determine the number of distinct values obtained by applying the bitwise OR operation on all possible subarrays.
I had read this article few days before the interview so I was aware of the approach that was efficient. But I started by explaining the naive O(N^3) solution.
The interviewer asked me to optimize the approach.
Then I gave him the approach I read in the article.
The interviewer asked me to code the solution which I did.
You are given a graph with 'N' vertices numbered from '1' to 'N' and 'M' edges. Your task is to color this graph using two colors, such as blue and red, in a way that no two adjacen...
We can approach this problem by running a DFS starting from vertex-1.
We have a total of ‘m’ edges.
When can we achieve the configuration when we see in reference to vertex-1?

The round was at 4 pm evening. This round was taken by one of the Vice President of the company, this made me anxious from the very beginning.
The interviewer was a knowledgeable man and had great knowledge in every field. He always demanded exact answers.
The round started with my resume walk through. Then came open ended questions followed by a system design question in which I failed miserably.
Tip 1 : For company like codenation you need to be great in competitive programming as the online test is very difficult to crack
Tip 2 : Focus on leetcode during final months of preparation of interview
Tip 3 : Try to have at least 3 flagship projects in at least 2 different domains
Tip 1 : Keep the resume clean with good text to space ratio.
Tip 2 : Don't mention tech slacks that you have only a little knowledge about as it can backfire if the interviewer is good in that tech slack.

As this was my first system design round, I was not expecting to be able to tell anything , but to my surprize he interested in just the idea what I can think , how I can solve some issues which need not be definitely to have a solution / or multiple solutions are possible from common sense.
I was given an Idea based question
Tip 1 : Be focused on the question and keep trying, Project needs to be well understood and somewhat on your tips.
Tip 2 : Don't code till you are sure and got a green signal about the efficiency and correctness of logic
Tip 3 : Just brush up your DS basics and some logical algorithms (Dijkstra, Shortest spanning tree , etc)
Tip 1 : Experience must be highlighted, or the Project whichever you would like to discuss
Tip 2 : Links are always a great way to show your work (deployed/code)
