I applied via Referral and was interviewed before Oct 2020. There was 1 interview round.
I appeared for an interview in Sep 2020.
Round duration - 90 minutes
Round difficulty - Medium
3 coding Questions:
1st : Easy question based on simple loop iteration
2nd :Medium level Dp question
3rd : Medium level tree question(where we were not just required to complete the tree function but to build whole bst from
scratch)
It was conducted from 1:30 - 3:00 pm.
The coding platform was very good (as auto indentation and auto completion of brackets were there)
having camera on.
You are given the stock prices for N
days. Each day i
signifies the price of a stock on that day. Your goal is to calculate the maximum profit that can be achieved by buyin...
Calculate maximum profit by buying and selling stocks on different days.
Iterate through the stock prices and buy on the day when the price is lower than the next day's price, and sell on the day when the price is higher than the next day's price.
Keep track of the total profit earned by summing up the differences between buying and selling prices.
Return the total profit as the maximum profit that can be earned.
You are given a binary tree with 'N' unique nodes, and a specific start node from where the fire will begin. The task is to determine the time in minute...

This was a completely technical coding round where I was asked to solve the problems of data structures.
The codepad where i was asked to code was fine,
The interviewer was very friendly and was helpful and understanding.
I also asked him about his work and experience in the company and some other questions.
Given an N*M matrix filled with integer numbers, your task is to find the maximum path sum starting from any cell in the first row and ending at any cell in the last row. Y...

It was held on Gmeet platform
The interviewer was very experienced person and was very nice too.
He made me comfortable by first introducing himself in a very detailed way and then asking me mine introduction
Since I feel that his internet connection was not very good so he turned off his camera but I decided not to turn off mine as in online interviews your face reviles your confidence
the interviewer mostly asked me questions about my interests in technical field and the project that I have done
Tip 1 : Practice atleast(easy and medium questions from leetcode under(Top Interview Questions)) and all the questions from Gfg under(must to do coding questions for interviews))
Tip 2 : Don't learn each and every question you solved but try to solve question in a way that you can solve its variation during interviews
Tip 3 : Do one project(one is enough) which you can explain with full technical details (why you used this technology, and all logics you applied in implementation)
Tip 4: Atleast read the round 1 (Coding round) Archives from (Geeks for geeks or Glassdoor). To get your mind prepared for the types of questions that company usually asks.(Coding round is the toughest Step in the whole Process to clear)
Tip 1: Have at least one project which you have made yourself and you should know all the technical questions related to that project (I feel project domain hardly matters like web development or android or ML/AI)
Tip 2: You should Put only those skills in resume :
1. Which the company requires (eg if you know company doesn't require Networking domain knowledge so
don't include it unnecessary if you are not much confident in it)
2. For on campus internships resume shortlisting is very easy so don't add anything unnecessary which might
cause you pain during interview.

The task is to find the smallest positive integer value that cannot be represented as a sum of elements of any proper subset of the given array.
The array is sorted in non-decreasing order, so we can iterate through the array and keep track of the maximum sum we can form.
If the current element is greater than the maximum sum + 1, then the maximum sum + 1 is the smallest positive integer that cannot be represented.
If all...

The interviewer was friendly and in a bit of a hurry.
Tip 1 : DSA is the key. Starting from scratch, one can become proficients in a couple of months.
Tip 2 : Solve questions just a bit outside your comfort zone. Solve too easy to too hard questions is not of any use.
Tip 3 : Be consistent, make a habit of following good coding practices.
Tip 4 : Get to know the ins and out of your projects. You must be very confident while explaining those.
Tip 5 : Don't just directly to system-design, brush up on OOPS principles, networks, OS, DBMS before that.
Tip 1: Keep it crisp and to the point. Make bullet points.
Tip 2: Bold the things you want to be paid attention to. Use numbers rather than vague sentences.
Tip 3: Only put the things you are confident about.
Tip 4: Don't put things irrelevant to the job, it only dilutes the main content.

....
Given an array and a target sum, find a subarray that sums up to the target sum.
Iterate through the array while keeping track of the running sum and the starting index of the subarray.
Use a hashmap to store the running sum and its corresponding index.
If the running sum - target sum is found in the hashmap, it means a subarray with the target sum exists.
Return the starting and ending indices of the subarray or [-1, -1]
