IndiaPosted Apr 2026 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I went through an OA that was a real mix—there were four DSA questions spanning easy, medium, hard, and then some more complex material.

The way it was run felt like a filter: if I cleared that set, I would advance to a video meeting call.

This was tied to an off-campus program timeline for the 2027 batch, so the whole setup felt structured around pipeline progression rather than a deep back-and-forth interview.

Despite tackling the set, I didn’t make it through to an offer. The experience left me feeling like the DSA difficulty was the main hurdle and that the process wasn’t going to bend for anyone who struggled even briefly on the harder combination.
