Experience:

This candidate, a 7th-semester engineering student from a VTU college, cleared the first round, which included aptitude and some technical questions. The technical interview was scheduled for 10 AM on the same day as their internal assessments. The candidate managed to finish their internal test by 9:45 AM and rushed to attend the interview, being 5-6 minutes late.

Technical Interview: The interviewer was understanding and started with "Introduce yourself." Following this, the candidate explained their recent projects and mini-projects. Basic technical questions included: syntax for `UPDATE` in SQL, the use of `#include` in C, and a description of the `image` tag in HTML. Questions were also asked about activities listed on the resume. The candidate answered all questions well but unfortunately did not hear back from the company.
