VadodaraPosted Sep 2025 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I went through an on-campus sequence that started with an online assessment, then two technical rounds, and then a behavioral round.

The online portion included a medium DSA problem and some broader CS fundamentals.

During the technical conversations, they asked about classic foundations like OOP, operating systems, and DBMS/SQL. It felt like the bar was to see whether I could connect concepts rather than just recite definitions. The overall difficulty was framed as easier than some of the more extreme coding-heavy processes I’d seen, and that matched how the questions were balanced across the rounds. I didn’t get an offer, but the experience was straightforward enough that I could see exactly where I was being evaluated.
