Technical Interview
This was an on campus offer.
This round lasted for about 35-40 minutes. The process began with the interviewer asking me to introduce myself, followed by a few questions related to my resume. They inquired about my interest
in the IT sector and whether I genuinely wanted to pursue a career in this field. This was a brief conversation before the technical questions started.
Next, I was asked to explain one of the projects I had listed on my resume. I selected a project and went into detail about it. The interviewer asked why I chose specific technologies for the project(==. They also wanted to understand the relevance of the project: whether it had any real-life application and if it was solving a real-world problem.
After that, we moved on to questions related to computer science fundamentals. I was given real-life scenarios and asked how I would solve certain problems. One question I remember was about withdrawing money from an ATM. The question was: If money is debited from your account but not dispensed by the
ATM, what could be the issue and how would you resolve it? Then I was
asked few questions on OOPS and DBMS.
HR
The interview started with the typical question: “Introduce yourself.” After that, I was asked a series of behavioral and personal questions, like:
• When did you take a position of responsibility? What challenges did you face, and how did you overcome them?
There were more similar questions. It lasted abut 20-30 minutes
