Behavioral Coding

The first part was an HR phone interview where they asked about my graduation date, my future aspirations, and my H1B needs. After that, there was a tech interview. We spent about half an hour talking about my resume, and then used the remaining time for a coding question about currency converting. The third round got canceled since they had already hired enough people.

Confirmed questions1 question
  • Given some converting rates between some currencies, need to find the rate between two specified currencies.

Technical Coding Behavioral

The recruiter was really nice and helpful. Since I'm a new grad, the process involved a phone screen, followed by two technical rounds. Then, for the virtual on-site, there were three technical interviews and one behavioral interview. After the interviews, there was a background check.

Confirmed questions1 question
  • They asked if I was interested in backend or frontend development.
