IndiaPosted Sep 2014 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My application moved into a coding round first where I had to complete five coding tasks in an hour.

The set included a few dynamic-programming problems alongside general programming questions. After that, I had technical interviews where I was asked to write code for specific data-structure behavior—one prompt involved adding two numbers represented as linked lists in reverse digit order.

The tone felt pretty high-pressure because even when I could reach a workable solution, I wasn’t able to get through at least one interview stage and ended up being rejected. The whole sequence ended quickly enough that it didn’t turn into a long multi-stage journey.

In the end I didn’t get an offer.
