Hi leetcoders,
I have recently cleared Goldman sachs interview for Bangalore location. It was started in Feb 2021. I got a call from their recruiter.
Experience - 1.5 yrs

Round 1 : Online Assessment (HackerRank):
Two medium leetcode problems. I don't remeber the exact problems but one was based on priority queue and other was a DP problem.

Round 2 : CoderPad Round:
In this round after some discussion related to my past experience, interviewer directly jumped to coderpad(a collaborative platform to write and compile code) where interviewer gave me two questions.
first problem :
https://leetcode.com/problems/shortest-path-in-binary-matrix/ (little modified)
and other was some string manipulation problem. In this round, all the given test cases should pass.

After atleast a month later, recruiter set up 3 technical rounds in one day

Round 3: Technical-1
In this round, interviewer started with introduction and then asked me to explain my current project. After this discussion he gave a problem on DP which was easy only, so I was alse to complete it early and then he gave me a backtracking problem for which only approach was discussed.

Round 4: Technical-2
In this round also, interviewer started with introduction and then we had a discussion on one of my projects . After this discussion he gave a problem on topological sorting
https://leetcode.com/problems/course-schedule/.
and after this interviewer asked a question on probability and we had a long discussion on this problem.

Round 5: Technical-3
In this round after introduction and project discussion , I was asked a DP problem
https://leetcode.com/problems/minimum-cost-for-tickets/
and the second problem was to find the kth lexicographically ordered string for a given string.

Round 6: Managerial (V.P.)
discussion on projects and some behavioural questions.

Final verdict : Offer
The interview experience was very good as the interviewers were helpful and polite.
