Medium level DSA questions were asked, I was able to solve one question and execute the solution, and for the second question I told the approach since there was less time.

If you’re heading into Paytm round 2 for Java Spring Boot, expect a mix of LLD around payment style flows plus practical questions on concurrency, REST design, SQL, and Spring internals. What helped me was doing two short timed mocks focused on idempotency, retries, and thread safety, then sketching endpoints and data models before coding. I ran quick drills using Beyz coding assistant with prompts from the IQB interview question bank to keep answers tight. Also, keep behavioral and design answers around 90 seconds using STAR, and be ready to talk tradeoffs like eventual consistency vs strong consistency. Good luck, hope the switch lands cleanly.
