How many rounds were there? Describe briefly.

There were a total of 4 rounds One Online Assessment which was a mix of Maths, Aptitude, Subjective and 3 coding questions.

What questions were asked? Describe briefly.

Online Assessment: The main focus in MCQs was probability. The coding round had 3 questions divided in two sections. The first section consisted of two questions, first on binary search and second on Greedy Algorithms. The second section consisted of a question on graphs. Interviews: Round 1 (Technical): The questions covered my résumé, followed by standard questions like fibonacci (all approaches), Dijkstra and it's optimisation, a question on DSU, standard graph algorithms and their time complexities and 0/1 Knapsack problem. Round 2 (Technical): Again the questions first covered my résumé followed by a couple of questions, first a basic implementation question followed by a question on binary search. Round 3 (Technical+HR): This was a thorough walk through my résumé, followed by a question on system design. There were a couple of questions focused on behavioural skills, obviously to which there was nothing right or wrong. Got selected and received a PPO later!

Any advice for future aspirants?

Just chill. Don't stress. Think loudly.
