London Stock Exchange Group Engineer Trainee Interview Questions and Answers

Round 1 was aptitude round, it consisted of java and c++ snippets and we had to guess the output. Apart from that there were problems on speed, velocity, distance and time. Problems on word-letter patterns were also asked. The aptitude round had 30 questions and time given was 30 minutes.

Aptitude round was the only elimination round. The next following 4 rounds were non-elimination rounds. Coding test included 3 questions - 1 and half hour was given to solve the same. It is fine if you don't perform well here, since it is a non-elimination round. But try to solve 1 and half or 2 questions atleast. The questions were mainly based on 1d arrays, 2D arrays, strings and string arrays.

Q2. Difference between Structure and object oriented languages
Ans. 
Structure languages focus on procedures and functions, while object-oriented languages focus on objects and classes.
• Structure languages use functions and procedures to manipulate data

• Object-oriented languages use objects and classes to encapsulate data and behavior

• Structure languages are more procedural in nature, while object-oriented languages are more modular and reusable

• Examples of structure languages include C and...read more

Q3. Explain of OOPS concepts and their real life examples.
Ans. 
OOPS concepts are fundamental to object-oriented programming and include inheritance, encapsulation, polymorphism, and abstraction.
• Inheritance: A child class inherits properties and behaviors from a parent class. Example: Animal class can be a parent class with child classes like Dog and Cat inheriting its attributes.

• Encapsulation: Bundling data and methods that operate on the data into a single unit. Example: A car ob...read more

Q4. What is static keyword and it's usage.
Ans. 
The static keyword in programming is used to declare variables, functions, or classes that retain their values or state throughout the program's execution.
• Static variables retain their values between function calls

• Static functions can only be accessed within the same file

• Static classes cannot be instantiated and have limited visibility

• Static keyword can also be used in C++ to declare class members shared among all inst...read more

Q6. Access Modifiers in java
Ans. 
Access modifiers in Java control the visibility of classes, methods, and variables.
• There are four types of access modifiers in Java: public, private, protected, and default.

• Public: accessible from any other class.

• Private: only accessible within the same class.

• Protected: accessible within the same package and subclasses.

• Default: accessible only within the same package.

• Example: public class MyClass { private int myVar; p...read more

Q7. What OOPS concepts are implemented in my project
Ans. 
Encapsulation, Inheritance, Polymorphism, Abstraction
• Encapsulation: Data hiding and bundling of data with methods. Example: Using private variables and public methods.

• Inheritance: Reusing code and creating a hierarchy of classes. Example: Subclass inheriting properties and methods from a superclass.

• Polymorphism: Ability to present the same interface for different data types. Example: Method overloading and overriding.

• A...read more
