The interview was done via firstIPO, a third party. It went well. The interviewer from HARMAN was nice. After the interview, I didn't get any feedback or calls. The firstIPO contact person blocked my number and I can't email them either. If you get calls from firstIPO for any company, just ignore them and apply on the company's website instead.

Technical Behavioral
The interview started with a technical group discussion (GD) where we had to define a 'Mouse' class structure with attributes and hierarchy. After the GD, which 4 out of 25 candidates passed, there was a 1-hour technical discussion with the interviewer. This was followed by two more technical interviews, and then a final HR or Managerial round, making it a total of 4 rounds in one day. I didn't pass the first technical round, so I don't know about the later stages or the offered package. Overall, it was a good experience, and I learned many hidden core concepts. Hope this is helpful. Good luck!

i attended the interview at 3pm, after waiting 30 minutes they conducted a written test. after finishing the written test there was a face-to-face discussion. i am not clear about the face-to-face round. if you have very good knowledge on algorithm and data structures, you can easily crack the interview.

- in an array, how would you find the maximum difference between the lowest and highest elements?
