IndiaPosted Jan 2023 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My interview loop was tough in a very specific way: it pulled heavily at my resume and then probed into fundamentals.

I remember a lot of questions about my background and projects, and then the technical portion widened into data structures and algorithms, plus SQL.

Instead of just staying in one lane, the interview moved across areas and kept checking that I truly understood what I’d worked on. The experience felt difficult overall, and it didn’t end with an offer. Looking back, what stands out is how strongly they evaluated my projects while simultaneously testing core technical breadth.
