BengaluruPosted Mar 2018 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I showed up for what felt like a very low-quality interview.

The interviewer pulled up a GeeksForGeeks page and asked questions directly from there, expecting me to answer in the same way and approach as what was written online.

It didn’t feel like a thoughtful evaluation of how I reason through problems or how I build solutions in practice. The process gave me the strong impression that the questions and expectations were being used as a shortcut.

I didn’t receive an offer. The overall feeling was that the time I spent there was a waste, because the interview style didn’t match how a real software engineering discussion usually goes.
