Interview
Round-1(Technical):
The interview started with my interviewer introducing himself and he asked me to introduce myself. Then he asked some questions about the projects I worked on. We talked about my projects for around 10-15 minutes. Then he asked some basic questions on CS fundamentals like - what is difference between C++ and Java, datatypes in Java, questions on OOPS, what are various searching algorithms etc. He asked to write some basic SQL queries and asked some other questions on DBMS. Then he asked me about extracurriculars mentioned in my resume. He concluded the interview by asking if I had any questions. The round was around 40-45 minutes.

Round-2(Technical+HR):
This round also started with the interviewer asking me to introduce myself. She also asked me about the projects I had worked on. Later, she asked what do you know about BNY Mellon. She concluded the interview with asking if I had any questions. This round was shorter and went for around 25 minutes.

Some of my classmates were also asked DSA/coding qns in Round-1. So be prepared for that as well.
