Intern
They asked me about the projects and publications listed on my CV. After that, I was given 2 DSA questions and 2 puzzles to solve. The DSA problems were about medium difficulty on Leetcode, and the puzzles were also manageable if you've practiced them before.
- Can you tell me about the work you did for your publication?
- Could you elaborate on the projects and publications mentioned on your CV?
- Please solve two Data Structures and Algorithms problems, similar to LeetCode's medium difficulty.
Intern
There was an online coding test with 3 coding questions, ranging from medium to hard difficulty. However, it seemed like people were shortlisted randomly, possibly based on their resumes, as the coding test didn't appear to play a significant role in the shortlisting.
- A coding question involving strings, of easy to medium difficulty.
- A coding question related to trees, which was of medium to hard difficulty.
- A third coding question, though the specifics are not recalled.
Intern
This was a single round process, mostly focused on my resume. I was asked to talk about my undergraduate research project, and the entire interview was spent discussing my research area and current research work. Essentially, if they think you have a solid research background or the necessary fundamental knowledge, they'll extend an offer. It's worth noting that a research project isn't a strict requirement; in my situation, having one was enough.
- Could you provide a summary of your resume?
- Could you elaborate on your research project?
