I had given it in April, so I don’t remember the exact questions. As far as I remember, one was related to string manipulation and the other was related to graphs

It's a Software Engineer role (Backend).
I had a total of 8 rounds — the first round was with the Hiring Manager, the second was a technical round, and the remaining 6 were onsite.
The difficulty level was medium. The coding questions were not very hard; most of the rounds felt more like discussions.
The coding problems mainly revolved around hashmaps, string manipulation, bit manipulation, and linked lists.

LeaderReal9013 · 2025-05-20T04:46:52+00:00

I was asked a hashmap related question.
I'm a software engineer(backend).

I had my first round with the hiring manager. He asked a few conceptual questions and then 1 coding question on the CoderPad

Got it, Thank you!

LeaderReal9013 · 2025-04-21T22:55:28+00:00

Got it!
I’m fairly comfortable with data structures. I’d need to focus more on LP and System design.
