Interview Preparation Tips
Experience: Interviews were driven to know the candidate better and their capabilities. They also didn’t waste much time asking students who they were sure not to recruit and conducting reasonably long interviews.
General Tips: Do’s :
1. Start preparing with the start of the summers.
2. Concentrate on your own preparation and not on what others are doing.
3. Keep the preparation time of HR to maximum 20 hours because HR accounts for just 20% weightage in your selection procedure.
4. Have patience.
5. Prepare every point written in the resume such that you are able to speak for at least 3 min on the subject. You might gain bonus points if you are aware of some latest developments or strategic changes in the field.
Don’ts :
1. Never bog down when you are either not shortlisted in the company who have been aiming for or when even after practice you are not getting the correct way.
2. Do not form very large groups for the preparation. Try making the preparation time that you spend with the group as efficient as possible with the least of bulla sessions.

- Q1. What are tree traversals?
- Ans.
Tree traversals are methods of visiting all nodes in a tree data structure.
There are three types of tree traversals: in-order, pre-order, and post-order.
In-order traversal visits the left subtree, then the root, then the right subtree.
Pre-order traversal visits the root, then the left subtree, then the right subtree.
Post-order traversal visits the left subtree, then the right subtree, then the root.
Tree traversals are ...
- Q2. What is pre-order and post-order?
- Ans.
Pre-order and post-order are traversal methods used in binary trees.
Pre-order: visit root, left subtree, right subtree
Post-order: visit left subtree, right subtree, root
Used to traverse binary trees and perform operations on nodes
Example: Pre-order traversal of binary tree: A, B, D, E, C, F, G
Example: Post-order traversal of binary tree: D, E, B, F, G, C, A
Interview Preparation Tips
Experience: I consulted my seniors for preparation of my resume. I believe that seniors provide the best provide you with the best possible insights in this regards.
Round: Test
Experience: The first round was the written test. There were 8 theoretical questions asked in the paper. The questions were either in the form of puzzles or probability based questions. The first three questions in the paper were compulsory questions and needed to be answered correctly for the rest of your paper to be evaluated; if a particular candidate answered any one of these questions incorrectly then he was rejected then and there. Apart from these 3 questions solving 2 more questions would have assured a candidate’s chance of getting selected for the next round. The duration of the test was of around 40 minutes.
For the written test nearly 300 people appeared out of which 30-40 were shortlisted for the interviews.
Round: Puzzle Interview
Experience: In the interview I was asked few puzzles and few coding problems.
Some puzzles asked were:
1) There are 3 couples (each couple consists of a man and a woman: husband and wife pair) who want to cross a particular river with only one boat available for the voyage. At a time the boat can carry a maximum of 2 people and a woman cannot stay in presence of other male in absence of her husband. All three couples want to cross the river, what are the ways in which this could be done?
2) There are 2 ropes which burn in 60 minutes. How to measure 45 minutes without cutting any of the ropes?
In the coding questions the interviewers did not ask me to write down the complete codes of the problems, they only asked me to suggest some suitable algorithms. In one of the questions they gave me a binary number and asked me to write down the algorithm to calculate the number of one’s in the binary number.
Round: Technical Interview
Experience: In second round of interview I was asked some hardcore programming questions on data structures since I wrote it as my area of interest. Some of the questions asked were:
If you have an array of ‘n+m’ elements and have these ‘n’ elements separately and you have to transfer these n elements in the n+m element slot which already contains the m elements. The transfer has to be done in such a way that all the m+n elements are sorted.
I was asked some puzzles as well. For instance in one of the puzzles, I was given a square consisting of 9 dots on its periphery. I was asked to join those 9 dots using 4 lines without lifting the pencil.

Interview Preparation Tips
Experience: I prepared a single resume but changed my areas of interest while applying in different companies. For instance while applying in Samsung Electronics I wrote about my strengths in data structures and various programming languages. I had a long list of extra-curricular activities under my belt; I made sure to select a handful of relevant activities and mentioned them in my resume.
Round: Test
Experience: The first round was the written test. The questions were subjective as well as objective and comprised of 10 questions. Out of these 10 questions the first 4 subjective questions were compulsory questions and needed to be answered correctly. Incorrect answers to any one of these 4 questions rendered the candidate appearing for the test ineligible for the next round. After these 4 questions there were few objective questions and then there were 2 programming questions at the end of the paper.
The first 4 questions were based on permutation, combination and probability. The objective questions were also based on permutation, combination and probability, but also included some questions on speed, distance and time. For example in one of the questions we were asked to calculate the total number of rectangles in an 8x8 chess board.
In the programming sections there were two questions, one of the questions was a subjective question based on string and the other question was based on determining the output of the given code.
Round: HR Interview
Experience: In the interview the interviewers asked me some programming questions and puzzles. The question was that we have two stacks and using the two stacks we had to generate an output such that it was similar to a queue. It was that the one that was inserted the first should be the one as output as the first one. What I did was to pop out all elements from a stack and put it in another stack until the last one. The last element will then be the output. Then the same process was followed.
Next they asked me some puzzles. Surprisingly, their puzzles were repeated, i.e. the puzzles that were asked to the candidates before me were the same as those asked to me. In one of the puzzles I was told about 3 king-queen pairs that wanted to cross a particular river with only one boat available for the purpose. The boat could accommodate maximum 2 people and a particular queen cannot survive with any of the two other kings in absence of her own king, but a particular queen can survive with any of the other two queen or both of them in absence of her own king. I had to suggest a way to help them cross the river safely.

A tree is represented in the form of array. Where index(i) of the array represent value of a node and the value inside(A[i]) represent the parent index of the tree.
Value corresponding to root is -1. Construct the tree.
For Eg: 1,-1,1,2,3,1 index 1 is root, with three children at indexes (0, 2 and 5) and index 3 is a child of 2, index 4 is a child of index 3
Initially I did it O(n*n) and later with the help of extra space O(n), I did it in O(n)Q2. We played a game, there are n coins where each player has to pick up coins min 1 and max 6 one by one and the person who picks the last coin is the looser
something like -----
We played two such sets and both times the interviewer won and he asked me to find the logic behind it, luckily I could crack it using the two sample games I played.Q3. -----.php?op=2&id=9653&comm=0
