I applied via Campus Placement and was interviewed in Sep 2022. There were 2 interview rounds.

Round 1 - Coding Test 

2 coding questions on hash map(DSA)

Round 2 - Group Discussion 

Worst GD, it was not even a GD the interviewer told us to unmute & speak only when asked to. During the whole GD, I had not got a single chance to speak even if I knew the answers of some of questions. He was asking the same number of persons the questions again and again. Equal chance to speak was way back thing he didn't even asked many of us the questions. It was totally a waste of time sitting their and listening the same people. I never have seen such GD in my life !
At last only one student from so many got selected for next round and that person was the same who he was asking the questions.
