IndiaPosted Aug 2022 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My interview was genuinely broad and difficult, and it felt like they tested almost the entire engineering map.

I was asked questions spanning DSA and OOPs, plus OS and CN topics, and the session also touched system design. On top of that, I got questions related to machine learning and deep learning, and even included development-style topics.

The tech interview also carried HR-style questions woven into the process, which made the pace feel like it wasn’t only about coding—it was about overall fit and communication under pressure. The difficulty level was described as high, and my experience matched that impression.

I didn’t end up getting an offer. The main thing I’d reflect on is how overwhelming
