So it was an on-campus hiring process. First, candidates who met the criteria (overall 60%) got a link for an Aptitude + Coding test. The aptitude section was easy to moderate, with some English questions too. There were 3 coding questions: the first was super easy, just a single line of code. The second was like a GFG Easy problem. The third was a Leetcode Medium, specifically adding two numbers in a linked list. Out of 150 students who took the test, only 11 got shortlisted for the interviews.
