Experience:

This candidate applied for an internship through an on-campus drive. The process was lengthy, lasting months, with multiple reschedules.

Round 1: Application & Coding Test
The first round was a coding test on the SHL platform. The questions were mostly easy to medium in difficulty, and the candidate completed them in less than half the allotted time.

Round 2: Technical and HR Interview
This round was initially scheduled for August 23rd but was rescheduled five times, finally taking place on September 16th.

Technical Interview: Questions included a self-introduction, object-oriented programming concepts, and coding problems such as dictionary manipulation, reversing a string, and using a stack to reverse a sentence. Other topics covered were abstraction (definition and examples), synchronous vs. asynchronous programming, Python variable scope, linked list examples, and a comparison of set vs. dictionary.

HR Interview: Questions focused on the candidate's projects, family background, hobbies and interests, and knowledge about OpenText. The candidate was also given the opportunity to ask questions.

The interview reportedly went well, and the interviewer gave positive feedback, inquiring about other offers. However, as of the post date, the candidate had not received a final result, expressing frustration over the prolonged and uncertain process.
