The process was alright, though the Hiring Manager seemed a bit all over the place. It included a long session diving into my background. Not many tough questions were actually asked, but we talked about understanding and debugging issues, and how to get better at coding assessments. It seems like what you say doesn't really matter given some of the feedback about the Interviewer. There's even talk that this kind of attitude from Senior Staff could hurt the company long-term. After they told me the result, there was zero communication, and they didn't reply even when I reached out.

The interview process kicked off with a subjective online test covering practical Data Structures and Database management concepts. After that, 25 of us moved on to the second round, which was a 1.5-hour coding challenge with two problems: one on String Manipulation and another on the Relative degree of prime numbers. The third round, held on Google Hangouts, involved about 15 minutes of questions on C programming and Data Structures. The fourth and final round, also on Hangouts, was brief, around 7-10 minutes, and focused on Hashing. Unfortunately, I didn't make it past this round, though two candidates were selected for the final HR stage.

Coding Technical Behavioral

The recruitment process had 5 phases. First, a Written Test with 10 questions covering OS, Probability, and C fundamentals, plus 3 coding problems requiring code and test cases. Second, a Face-to-Face (F2F) round discussing my projects and questions from the written test. Third, another F2F Technical interview with one coding question and queries on Data Structures and OS. Fourth, a Google Hangout interview, the most challenging, with OS, Discrete Math, and Hashing questions, where time was tight and pressure was high. Despite missing about 30% of answers, I advanced. Fifth, an HR round via Hangout asking general HR questions, my dream profile, why I want to join Evive, and how I'd improve in weak technical subjects. The whole process spanned 4 days.
