- Q6. Redesign the home page of Swiggy. Feel free to change/ critique any portion of the page and suggest changes with rationale
Interview Preparation Tips
Overall, I felt it was a great problem-solving exercise. Later I realised that fleet-optimisation was one of the major problems Swiggy (and this interviewer) was working on, and hence this question was
related.
Round 2- The interview would have lasted at least 1.5 hours. The interviewer
was extremely friendly and a great listener - he encouraged disagreements and looked
for the rationale behind decision making and structure in thinking.
Round 3- The interview would have lasted at least 1.5 hours. The panel was friendly and from their depth of questions/ cross-questions it felt as if they were working on the this problem itself i.e. designing restaurant’s menu pages on Swiggy. It was pretty
conversational and not at all a stress-interview, with more focus on customer-empathy, design sense and product sense.
