shortlisted after completing all question.

recieved a call from hr after 2 days and scheduled interview after 2 days.

so in the mean time i covered dp, graph and trees.

2nd round - on google meet. introduction and few question on sql vs mongodb.
1 st question - merge intervals.
2nd question - median of stream.

so i have to write complete code from scratch like taking input and all. so it was tough for 2nd question to take input. the interviwer allowed me to choose ide of my choice and i choose codechef ide. please select ide wisely. my approach was right but didn't able to write no error code. so he told me just copy paste the code on doc which he shared during the interviw.

update:
shortlisted for 3rd round- recieved call from hr. he told me to schedule the round next day but due to my health condition request him to postpone the round after some day he was kind and give me some time to recover.

recieved call again now schedule round after 2 days.
3 rd round (30min) Hiring Manager Round - genral discussion about project. detailed discssion on each project bullet point. why how and what. (like authentication vs authorization, jwt, mongodb vs firebase vs mysql).
at last he told me to ask some question and that's it.

last update - recieved a rejection on mail after engineer manager round. on asking for feedback from hr. he told me that em said i was not confident while explaning the project. need to focus on more basics of projects. on asking about DSA round hr told it was the best feedback as compare to all the candidate.

i don't know about the confidence. but all thoes who are reading this experience please try to write on doc how you gonna explain the project on doc and try it.

By the it was one of the great experience while interview.

Now moving on to apply on other companies.
