Technical Coding System Design
I applied for the Software Engineer position at Tracxn online. Although I was offered the role of Automation Engineer, I was assured the work would be identical to that of a Software Engineer. The interview process commenced with an online puzzle round featuring 20 visual reasoning questions (image prediction puzzles) presented via a Google Form. Upon successfully clearing this round, I was invited to Tracxn’s Bengaluru office for an in-person interview. The first stage involved a DSA problem-solving session where I had 30 minutes to solve a coding problem on paper. This was followed by a technical interview concentrating on JavaScript, React, and Node.js, which included both theoretical and practical questions. Subsequently, there was a coding round where I had 30 minutes to develop the frontend of a basic chat application using React. The final round consisted of a discussion about the system design for the same chat application, specifically focusing on the database schema and API design.

- Check if a given pattern is a substring of a given text. For example, with text = "tracxn" and pattern = "acx", the output should be true, but with text = "abcdef" and pattern = "acf", the output should be false.

Coding Coding
Had an initial call, then 3 rounds total. The first round was a coding challenge with one question, which was easy but long. The second round was supposed to be with a senior developer, but they missed the scheduled time, so it was rescheduled. The next day, I had another coding challenge, an extension of the previous question. The third round was with a manager who also missed the scheduled time, leading to another reschedule. This time, the question was from GeeksForGeeks, and although I tried a different approach, the interviewer insisted on the GFG solution, seeming unprepared. This was my final round as I didn't pass.

Technical Coding
The questions asked were thought-provoking and challenging. However, the interviewers themselves weren't always clear in their questions. As I started offering optimized solutions, they would extend the questions, adding more complexity and constraints. It was funny when one interviewer left and came back with new constraints 😂. Another interviewer interrupted my answers, giving their own solution before I could finish, and then asked why I hadn't completed my answer. Interviewers should be more considerate and flexible with candidates.
