JioSaavn Interview Questions
& Process

The interview process has DSA and domain specific questions. DSA questions are easy to medium on Leetcode. Domain specific questions are about React, JS, basic DNS working, etc. These questions are specific to the backend and infrastructure team.

After my resume got shortlisted, I went through a few rounds. First was a DSA round with 1-2 Leetcode Medium questions. Then, I had a round on ML Fundamentals. After that, it was an ML System Design round. Finally, I had an HR and Behavioral round.

The entire interview process spanned approximately three months and involved eight rounds plus one assignment. Even though the job was based in Bangalore, the in-person interview was scheduled in Mumbai. The interviewer seemed to have preconceived notions and biases regarding my relocation to Bangalore, which unfortunately overshadowed the entire discussion. Despite receiving positive feedback from all interviewers throughout the process, I was ultimately rejected due to this inflexibility. There was a notable lack of internal communication, as several interviewers were unaware of the assignment or the specifics of previous discussions. The lengthy nature of the process, which is usually not seen even in IT companies, was quite taxing.

I did 3 phone interviews where I mainly got to know the team. Then I had an in-person with a C-level exec. They showed me around the office and introduced me to employees who gave me the inside scoop on Saavn. They really care about their office culture, so they'll probably talk about that in your interview!
