Software Developer

Candidates typically face a timed online coding test followed by a technical interview that probes depth in data structures, system design, and real‑world project experience. The HR round assesses cultural fit, communication skills, and expectations. Preparation should focus on solving medium‑hard problems quickly and articulating design decisions clearly.

Round 1: Online coding assessment (platform‑based test covering DS&A and basic coding) → Round 2: Technical interview (system design, deep dive into past projects, and problem‑solving) → Round 3: HR interview (culture fit, motivations, and compensation discussion)
