BengaluruPosted Jan 2023 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My interview journey mixed recruiter contact, onsite technical evaluation, and fundamentals-heavy questions that tested both DS and coding basics.

Recruiter phone screening + scheduling — a phone screen to align on profile, followed by an onsite interview.
Onsite technical interview — questions on languages and data structures I was familiar with, plus a coding component.
Elitmus technical intern flow — an additional path that used elitmus for technical assessment, then 2–3 rounds covering DSA basics, coding skill, and resume-anchored topics. Outcome: No offers reported; takeaway is that DS/data-structure fundamentals were repeatedly emphasized across formats.
