Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: Three questions of increasing difficulty level. The first one was on string manipulation, the second was based on the iterative version of the merge sort algorithm and the last one on dynamic programming.
Total Questions: 3

Round: Other Interview
Experience: Eight students were selected for this stage which consisted of three separate interviews. The first one was on algorithms and programming, the second on system design and the third was HR. In the algorithms and programming interview I was asked two questions. The interviewer asked me to first explain the proposed algorithm and then I was expected to write the code on a white board they had provided. Three weeks after the interviews the selected candidates were informed through the concerned placement coordinator.

General Tips: Don't panic, the interviewers don't expect you to come up with the optimum result directly and they will give you enough time to refine your solution.
Skill Tips: No special preparation is required. Just make sure that you have understood the fundamentals
of Data Structures and Algorithms well.
