Experience:

The interview process consisted of a Coding Assessment followed by an Online Interview which combined Technical and HR rounds.

Round 1: Coding Assessment

This round had two easy-to-answer, medium-range questions focused on arrays and strings. The candidate successfully solved both questions and moved to the next round.

Round 2: Online Interview (Technical + HR)

Both the Technical and HR interviewers were present at the beginning, asking the candidate to "tell me about myself." The technical interviewer then asked about the candidate's preferred programming languages, to which Java and Python were mentioned. The interviewer instructed the candidate to launch an online compiler and share their screen. Coding questions included reversing a string, handling exceptions if a string is NULL, and writing a Fibonacci series. Technical questions related to Java involved explaining an OOPs concept and providing a real-world application. Following the technical discussion, the HR interview covered questions about family background, projects, and lessons learned from those projects.
