Round 2
- Non standard CP question related to Heaps and maps combine.

In both the technical rounds the questions were standard from topics like: LinkedList and Stacks
In last round projects were discussed and some SQL queries were asked because I have mentioned about SQL queries in my resume.
Urban Company: Two technical Rounds
Round 1 : Only one question was asked in 1 hour. Find the maximum common subsequence in two strings.
