Interview Preparation Tips
Experience: First round was a simple round which involved 10 multiple choice questions and 3 coding questions on hackerrank platform.
Round: Technical Interview
Experience: Mainly on topics like networks, data structures and algorithms, operating systems. The interviewers looked for people who have had prior experience in web development and asked questions regarding web development in depth too.
Tips: I recommend everyone to read the book titled, 'Cracking the Coding Interview' as it was helpful in my approach to an interview.
General Tips: The one major thing that would give you the edge in joining Myntra would definitely be exposure to web development. Since it is not a part of the curriculum , it's all the more important for you to familiarize yourself with web development. In fact, a few projects in the same field would put you in a very advantageous position to get the job.
Skill Tips: 1. Start your placement preparations well ahead, no point regretting later.
2. Keep a concise resume. Do not take your resume to several pages.
3. Do not neglect aptitude preparation. Many people do this mistake and end up not clearing the first round for several companies.
4. Be thorough with your basics across all subjects. (Do not neglect any subject, even they you may like a few and dislike the others.)
5. Keep in mind, the interviewers are really friendly and try to make sure that you're not nervous during the interview. All they want to do is to test you. Be confident and give it your best shot.

Interview Questionnaire
10 Questions
- Q1. What do you do when your schedule is interrupted? How you handle it?
- Q2. PreOrder traversal without recursion?
- Ans.
PreOrder traversal without recursion is done using a stack to simulate the function call stack.
Create an empty stack and push the root node onto it.
While the stack is not empty, pop a node from the stack and process it.
Push the right child of the popped node onto the stack if it exists.
Push the left child of the popped node onto the stack if it exists.
- Q3. Build a bst out of the unsorted array by looping over the array and inserting each element to the tree?
- Ans.
Yes
Create an empty binary search tree (BST)
Loop over the unsorted array
For each element, insert it into the BST using the appropriate insertion logic
Repeat until all elements are inserted
The resulting BST will be built from the unsorted array
- Q4. Find 2 elements in array whose sum is equal to given number?
- Ans.
The question asks to find two elements in an array whose sum is equal to a given number.
Iterate through the array and for each element, check if the difference between the given number and the current element exists in the array.
Use a hash set to store the elements as you iterate through the array for efficient lookup.
Return the pair of elements if found, otherwise return a message indicating no such pair exists.
- Q5. How many types of trigger?
- Ans.
There are two types of triggers: DML triggers and DDL triggers.
DML triggers are fired in response to DML (Data Manipulation Language) statements like INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE.
DDL triggers are fired in response to DDL (Data Definition Language) statements like CREATE, ALTER, DROP.
Examples: A DML trigger can be used to log changes made to a table, while a DDL trigger can be used to enforce certain rules when a table is alt
- Q6. Can trigger be used with select statement?
- Ans.
Yes, triggers can be used with select statements in SQL.
Triggers are database objects that are automatically executed in response to certain events, such as insert, update, or delete operations.
While triggers are commonly used with insert, update, and delete statements, they can also be used with select statements.
Using triggers with select statements allows you to perform additional actions or validations before or af...
- Q7. Indexing in mysql? How many types of indexing in mysql?
- Ans.
Indexing in MySQL improves query performance. There are several types of indexing in MySQL.
Indexes are used to quickly locate data without scanning the entire table.
Types of indexing in MySQL include B-tree, hash, full-text, and spatial indexes.
B-tree indexes are the most common and suitable for most use cases.
Hash indexes are used for exact match lookups.
Full-text indexes are used for searching text-based data efficie...
- Q8. Engines in mysql?
- Ans.
Engines in MySQL are the underlying software components that handle storage, indexing, and querying of data.
MySQL supports multiple storage engines, each with its own strengths and features.
Some commonly used engines in MySQL are InnoDB, MyISAM, and Memory.
InnoDB is the default engine in MySQL and provides support for transactions and foreign keys.
MyISAM is known for its simplicity and speed but lacks transaction suppo...
- Q9. Singlton pattern?
- Q10. Can a constructor be private?
- Ans.
Yes, a constructor can be private.
A private constructor can only be accessed within the class itself.
It is often used in singleton design pattern to restrict object creation.
Private constructors are also useful for utility classes that only contain static methods.

Myntra had conducted a coding test on campus before the start of the placement season with 2 questions, one on stack and other on DP.
Tips : For the test, the DP question asked was pretty standard, on Longest Common Subsequence. The question on stacks, I don't remember what it was but it was also pretty straight forward. For the test, I would recommend to solve problem from GFG. If they do come to resume shortlisting, they are looking for people who have done good projects and internships.

The interview started off with questions on my general interest in Software Development. The first round had two coding questions, I was supposed to write the code on paper.
For the questions, they asked me to code the solution first. And then gave a specific input and asked me to demonstrate step by step in my code, how it would lead to the correct answer.
Tips: It's ok if you can't code a general solution, if you can write a code which works for the particular input they have given then also it's ok with them. But be thorough with Data structures.

I wasn't asked to write any code in this interview. They asked me some questions on Machine Learning, because of my projects in them. Then they asked me if I knew graph algorithms. Since I knew BFS and DFS, I told them. They asked the difference between the two. Then they asked me if I knew how to find the shortest distance between two points in a graph. I didn't know Dijkstra's properly but I knew it worked on the greedy approach so was able to tell that. Then they asked me how would I find the second shortest path. I tried to answer it with the same greedy approach, but couldn't arrive at the complete solution.
Tips: They ask a tough theoretical question. It's ok if you don't know the answer, they only look for your approach.
