Jio Software Engineer interview experience

The coding question I remember most was a minimum-window substring problem using two strings where the goal was to include all characters from one string (including duplicates).

There was also a coding question about finding the k-th smallest element in an array. Overall, the test felt like it covered a lot of ground quickly—coding and theory mixed together.

After that assessment, I didn’t progress to an offer. My reflection was that the breadth made it easy for one weak spot to overshadow strengths, even though the questions themselves were clear and well-defined.
