Round 1: Online Test (Medium to Tough Level)

1 question, 4 hours (Dynamic Programming question)

Round 2: Technical Interview (1 hour)

The panel consisted of 2 interviewers. The role was related to Networking Development with a tech stack including C++, Linux, Docker, etc.

The first question was about finding triplets with a sum of 0 in an array. I explained three methods: a brute-force approach, a two-pointer approach, and then they asked me to optimize further, which I did. They seemed very confident in my approach at that point.

Next, they asked questions on threading and multithreading, which I answered well.

They also asked about web development architectural patterns, several small questions on high-level design, optimization, and DSA concepts.

Round 3: HR Discussion & Technical Info (30 minutes)

The HR asked about my previous experience, reasons for switching jobs, why I wanted to change my tech stack, and we discussed salary expectations.
