Question 1
About my previous projects. And about the data structures in cpp
They started out with an HR interview as per the usual routine. This was followed by a technical screen over the phone. This consisted of a not-too-difficult coding question and some questions about my past experience. The last stage was a four-round virtual onsite, two rounds of coding questions plus one of system design and then a talk with the engineering director.

Smooth and team members are nice and personable. Seems to be a nice company with solid environment. Not sure on the company’s outlook given the name change and industry environment.
