I applied online and they got back to me pretty fast. The interview was quick, just one person asking simple questions. It was a pretty easy and fast process with good communication. The lead interviewer had a bit of a bad attitude though.

There were 2 rounds in total. The first round was mainly a resume screening where the interviewer probed into my past work, presenting challenges and asking me to elaborate on how I tackled a problem similar to what I had done before. This round was the deciding factor for my selection. The second round focused on fundamental DSA and ML algorithms. It was a coding interview where I had to provide a function's output or pseudocode.

  • Resume Grinding DSA round (without complex concepts)
