Round: Technical Interview
Experience: My interview went on for an hour and the interviewer asked all very logical questions on advanced data structures and algorithms. He asked about best ways to solve few business cases and the best algorithms I would suggest for the cases provided. Also he talked about query execution and optimization plans for sql.

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: Yes in-fact it is surprising that after an hour of interview they wanted to have a second round of technical interview. The questions were more about C/C++/C# coding as I have mentioned these on my resume. Please note they take your resume very seriously. he even asked me about projects I did in final semester and why I did them.

Round: HR Interview
Experience: This round was more to focus on how I handle work life balance and what interests I have. He did give me a situation mentioning that say suppose my parents are visiting me and I have leaves planned well in advance but then the client seems to be having an issue and it cannot proceed without me. SO be prepared for all such cases as well.
