Interview Preparation Tips
Experience: The first round was an online test conducted by hirepro.in. The round was 2 hours and went pretty swift aside from some really 'make or break' questions. As a mechanical Engineer and having next to little proficiency in programming, I was not astounded to find myself biting nails and clicking Flukes while glancing at the ever-incomprehensible coding questions. With each question, it seemed like I was brandishing the bat in the air for all kinds of balls, whether bouncer or Yorker, just for the only reason "I can't make a single thing out of these questions, let alone answer". The verbal and quantitative part was friendlier on me. I was able to answer almost 90% in those two sections. The questions framed were basic and doable with a month
