I applied directly on their portal and recruiter reached out to me and shared a test link which was on HackerRank.

1st Round - OA
There were 2 Medium questions in this test.

2nd Round - Coding(Codepad)
Interviewer came up with 2 questions

  1. First unique character in a string
  2. Find the integer in rotated sorted order.

Interviewer expected the most optimal code and I was able to solve both and all the test cases were passing. It was over within 30 minutes.

Selected for next round. Recruiter told me he will schedule next interview within 1 week.

After a week I had Super Day. Three rounds in a day.

SuperDay Rounds:

1st Round(DSA)
Here there were 2 interviewers both asked 1 question

  1. Design a Data Structure to update, return and change all the values. All the method should be in O(1) time complexity.
  2. Given an array and k value you can only take values either from front or back. Output the maximum sum.

I was able to partially solve first but completed 2nd with all test case passed.

2nd Round-(Low Level Design)
Here they started with project questions then moved to discussion on NoSQL and SQL. Then asked to design restaurent's most frequent ordered items. Then they asked java question why static keyword, garbage collector, multithreading.

3rd Round(High Level Design)
Design a monitoring tool.
I was not able to answer in this round as my second round didn't went well and in this round I was not able to tell anything.

Verdict - Rejected.
