BengaluruPosted Jun 2026 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

The process kicked off with a projects overview, and then I had to go deeper into one open-source contribution.

That part was hands-on: I walked through the work essentially line by line, explaining my thinking as I followed the structure of what they wanted to understand. After that, there were some more straightforward development questions.

Then the round shifted into coding and database. I ended up doing two DSA problems in Python and also two SQL questions, and the format felt pretty direct and practical rather than overly theoretical. The overall difficulty landed in the average range for me, and the vibe was focused on my ability to reason through real implementation details.
