I had applied via a referral and a week later a recruiter reached out to me.
I was asked to provide a one hour slot for a problem solving round. The interview was conducated by BarRaiser which is a third party interviewing platform.
Round 1 : DSA ( BarRaiser 60 mins)
Q1: https://leetcode.com/problems/search-in-rotated-sorted-array/
Q2: https://leetcode.com/problems/inorder-successor-in-bst/
There were 7 mins left when I was done explaining the approach and coding the solutions. Then I was asked 6-7 different Java questions. I answered them well.
Self Verdict: Strong Hire
Post this round, recruiter called and asked about my overall work experience and what I do in my current organisation.
After this she mentioned that there will be 2 more rounds. One will be Problem Solving round which will be conducted by a InMobi employee and another one will be HM Round.
Round 2 : DSA ( 80 mins )
I was asked about my current project and my contributions in them. Later I was given a coding problem to solve.
It was BFS on Grids and have solved lots of similar problems in the past so it was no biggie.
Later follow up for that was how I will find total paths which I did using DP and Memoisation.
Was asked to code both the solutions.
Self Verdict: Strong Hire
Round 3 : HM Round ( 50 mins )
It started off with our introductions but when I started explaining my work to him he got really confused and nudged me a lot inorder to find out what I am doing at my current org. There were lots of network and electricity issues at HM's end and he got dropped multiple times from the call while I was explaining him what I work on and what my interests are. In the end the interview was conducted on Phone.
I am unsure about how the HM will judge me on this round.
Got the offer after a week.
