The interview was scheduled for 9 Jan 21 from 6:00 pm. The interviewer started with “Tell me about yourself”. Then he asked some CS fundamental questions. I was asked about the singleton class and then about the memory layout in C++, then he moved on to the next question. He pasted a code snippet in the chatbox and asked me to tell the output. I copied the code to my local editor and explained my approach to finding the output. The code was related to the concept of virtual function and destructor in C++. After that, he asked me how much memory will be used by a struct that is storing 2 char variables and 1 int variable.

After that, he started with questions on data structures and algorithms and I was asked three questions.

Tip 1 : For DSA questions in interviews, start explaining from the brute force approach and then move to the optimal one. Convey your thought process to the interviewers, so that they can help you out if you get stuck. Communication skills matter a lot, and I think that is what makes the difference!
Tip 2 : Do some research about the company you are interviewing for and prepare the answers to the questions like Why should we hire you? (frame your answer in such a way that shows that your career goals align with the goals of the company), Why XYZ company?, Competitors of XYZ, etc. beforehand. Read about some latest news related to the company so that you can ask questions based upon that when the interviewer allows you to ask any question. This shows that you are genuinely interested to work for the company. 
Tip 3 : Spend proper time making your resume and get it reviewed by seniors. Do not write anything that you are not confident of. Even if you write something that you don’t know, just be prepared that how you will defend it. The interviewers are much much experienced than you and they’ll catch you easily if you lie. So don’t take risk here.

Application resume tips for other job seekers

Tip 1 : Try to include at least one development project in your resume.
Tip 2 : Do not write anything on the resume that you are not confident of. Even if you write something that you don’t know, just be prepared that how you will defend it. The interviewers are much much experienced than you and they’ll catch you easily if you lie.
