Round 1: Online assessment. DSA and MCQs were there in the test. MCQs was a timed section. Infact every MCQ was timed based on the complexity of the question. DSA was a simple simulation question. Round 2: Technical F2F interview. Self introduction and Palindrome linked list question. Interview scheduling was hopeless. -1 (No not 0) interview ettiquites. This was on campus and they had shortlisted ~ 35 people for the 1st round. Their big brain decided to call people in alphabetical order. After 2 hours their big brain realized that not even half of the candidates had finished their first round. They then started calling candidates in an alternating way (1 from alphabetical and the other one from the end). I happened to be stuck in between and had to wait ~ 4 hours for the 1st round. My 1st round was for 10 min. Did not even bother to see my resume. Simply asked me to write a code for palindrome linked list on paper. After coming out of the interview room within 10 min I was told to go home.
