Technical Coding Behavioral
I applied on campus and went through 3 rounds. First was an MCQ round covering DBMS, OS, CN, aptitude, and reasoning, where they selected 50 out of 200. Next was a technical interview where I was asked for an introduction, about my projects, sorting, ACID properties, and how fast I could learn Ruby. Finally, there was an HR round. They then selected 35 students. We had to wait a year for joining. After that year, they conducted another exam and then revoked everyone's offer. It was a terrible experience, wasting a year and causing a career gap.
