Result: Not Specified

Difficulty: Medium to Hard

Rounds: 3 rounds

Topics Asked: Aptitude, SQL, Data Structures, Algorithms (Greedy, Line Sweep/Prefix Sum, Heaps), DBMS, Resume-related, System Design (HLD)

Experience:

The process started with an Online Assessment (1 hour) on HackerRank. It consisted of 4 easy aptitude-based MCQs (14 minutes), 1 easy SQL query (10 minutes), and 2 DSA problems (1 easy, 1 medium - greedy, line sweep/prefix sum) (36 minutes).

Interview Round 1 (30 minutes) was reportedly resume-based for some peers, focusing on AI/ML if extensively mentioned. For this candidate, the interviewer was friendly and asked one medium to hard DSA problem (Heaps), DBMS questions (schema design + queries), and resume-related questions.

Interview Round 2 (45 minutes - 1 hour) was more professional. It began with resume-related questions and then moved to system design, specifically High-Level Design (HLD). This round was very technical, with the interviewer asking for detailed implementations, particularly web-related questions.
