MIDHANI AM Human Resource Interview Questions and Answers

Round duration - 70 Minutes
Round difficulty - Medium

There were 5 people in the zoom meet, including me. Rest all 4 were interviewers, 3 from India and 1 from the United Kingdom.
They started with my introduction and then moved on to the questions from my resume, starting with my internship at Samsung Bangalore and then projects.
Then another interviewer asked about my weakness and strength. Then comes the turn of coding questions.
Starting with finding the minimum element in O(1) time, rotating the 2-D array by 90 degrees, OOPS questions were also asked like- polymorphism, abstraction, virtual class. Some OS questions were- cache, paging algorithms.
Then come my POR and other activities.

Q1.

Q2. 
Inplace Rotate Matrix 90 Degrees Anti-Clockwise
You are provided with a square matrix of non-negative integers of size 'N x N'. The task is to rotate this matrix by 90 degrees in an anti-clockwise directi...read more
Ans. 
Rotate a square matrix by 90 degrees anti-clockwise without using extra space.
• Iterate through each layer of the matrix from outer to inner layers

• Swap elements in groups of 4 to rotate the matrix in place

• Handle odd-sized matrices separately by adjusting the loop boundaries

Q3. What are the page replacement algorithms in Operating Systems?
Ans. 
Page replacement algorithms are used in operating systems to decide which page to replace when a new page needs to be brought in.
• FIFO (First In, First Out) - replaces the oldest page in memory

• LRU (Least Recently Used) - replaces the page that has not been used for the longest time

• LFU (Least Frequently Used) - replaces the page that has been used the least number of times

• Optimal - replaces the page that will not be used

Q1. Explain on PCA , SVM and image processing concepts
Ans. 
PCA is a dimensionality reduction technique, SVM is a machine learning algorithm, and image processing involves manipulating images.
• PCA (Principal Component Analysis) is used to reduce the dimensionality of data by finding the most important features.

• SVM (Support Vector Machine) is a supervised machine learning algorithm used for classification and regression tasks.

• Image processing involves techniques like filtering, s...read more

Q1. Storage class in c
Ans. 
Storage classes in C define the scope and lifetime of variables.
• There are 4 storage classes in C: auto, register, static, and extern.

• Auto variables are stored in memory and have local scope.

• Register variables are stored in CPU registers for faster access.

• Static variables retain their value between function calls.

• Extern variables are declared outside of any function and can be accessed by other files.
