Applied through linkedin via referral, in the offcampus drive of Disney+ Hotstar around July 2022. After one month got selected for the OA. I was able to do two questions out of three and attempted all the MCQ's. After couple of weeks I got a mail that I am selected for interview rounds. I was informed that I would be having three rounds(2 DSA rounds and 1 Managerial round) and all the rounds would be held on the same day and cant be rescheduled.

1st round:
Q1- Length of the Longest Substring, First I had to explain the approach, time complexity and then start coding of the question.
Q2- Question to return true if there exists a subset with the sum provided in the input.
Overall great round, interviewer was very friendly, encouraged me to talk througout. Also we had discussion about my previous experience and he cross questioned me on it.

2nd round:
Q1 - Minimum number of deletions to to make a string a pallindrome. First I had to explain the approach, time complexity and then start coding of the question.
Q2 - Given a num keypad, on the basis of the numbers entered print all possible combinations of the letters through it. Had a long discussion on this question about time complexity. We explored various methods to do this via DFS, BFS but at last interviewer wanted to me to code the brute force method to solve this question.
Again a great round.

3rd round:
Managerial round, only project discussion, again a very friendly interviewer, he made up some hypothecical situations in the projects and asked how would you handle and also went deep in why you did specific things in the project, why use a particular technology

Verdict: Offer

Got the call about 2 weeks after about offer.
