BengaluruPosted Nov 2025 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My first step was a 120-minute HackerRank OA with three questions.

Two of them were DSA-based and were timed separately, and the third was a web development problem. The DSA portion took about 35 minutes each, while the web-development question ran for roughly 50 minutes.

The split made it feel like the assessment was testing more than one skill set rather than just grinding for algorithmic speed. I ended up spending a lot more time switching mindsets than I expected, because the structure forced me to move from data-structure thinking into implementing web-dev logic within the same long session.
