Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Group Discussion
Experience: There was a GD based on a case study.

Round: technical interview
Experience: The interview was based mainly on resume. They asked one question on Econometrics and one question on Microeconomics apart from the resume description. From resume they asked mainly about the projects and internships. Overall it was a great experience for a first job interview.

General Tips: Do’s and Don’ts :
1. Take 4-5 printouts of your resume before going for interview. Have a notepad and a pen with you in a folder along with the resume prints.
2. Don’t be frustrated. Always remember that there is a company meant for you. Now, it is possible that it may come on day 1 or day 7 or even later. Always keep faith and believe in yourself.
3. If you are placed and some of your friends are still in the process, support them and do help them in preparation. Moral support is very important in tough times. Don’t go home immediately once you are placed but stay here for a few extra days. This would mean a lot to them.
4. Sleep well during the placement season. You should sleep for at least 5-6 hours.

Wells Fargo has been so worst in recent days, they offer manager and lead roles just based on experience internally with Zero subject knowledge and no proper English.

And I felt, I have wasted my valuable time for an interview

    To find an even length palindrome in a string in O(n), we can use the two-pointer approach.

    • Initialize two pointers at the center of the string.

    • Expand the pointers outwards while checking if the characters at both pointers are equal.

    • If they are not equal, return the previous substring as the even length palindrome.

    • If the pointers reach the end of the string, return the entire string as the even length palindrome.
