Technical Coding Behavioral
So I applied online through a friend's link, dropped my resume, and after a few weeks, they shortlisted it. Then I got invited for an online test on the Cordinality platform, no proctoring involved. About a week later, I got a call for an interview. It was a 45-minute session where they asked stuff based on my resume, some OOPs concepts, and gave me a coding question.
Confirmed questions3 questions
- Tell me more about OOPs concepts like encapsulation, abstraction, and polymorphism.
- Can you discuss databases, SQL/NoSQL, and normalization?
- Given an array of size n with elements from 1 to k (k<n) and at least one repeating element, can you return one of them? For example, in ar = {1,1,2,3,4,2,4,5}, 1, 2, or 4 would be valid answers.
