      Interview

      Horrible interview. A bunch of oversmart people from US will take your interview in panic mode. They have hired cheap recruiter in Gurgaon who doesn't even know how many tech employees are there in gurgaon, I cleared hackerrank 100/100. First interview - Black hacker rank screen could not see the cursor so could not write code properly so wrote halfway through in my editor, The problem link interviewer shared didn't open in my system, so he shared his screen, After reading the big question I shared my screen to share editor, I was given a problem with 3 sub problem which I ran at the last moment, Interviewer gave positive feedback(but wrote some contradictory feedback) Second round was pathetic- I was given two problems, One I solved in 5 mins and showed the output. The second problem was from a competitive programming. I told a beautiful approach & solution and told I would use Priority Queue to do some task, this interviewer asked as to why after explaining the reason he said he understood, I was left with 10 minutes to code it as half of time went in deciding solution and explaining to this dumb interviewer but when I started writing code he kept asking again why am I using priority queue multiple times and lacked knowledge and concepts himself. I think I wrote a beautiful solution and I wrote a buggy code but I could write the whole approach in 10 minutes, to this interviewer said he was not expecting a working code. These guys will make you panic in 45 minutes asking 2-3 tough problem and weirdly decide who goes through. Not recommended at all, unless you are passing time like them. US interviewers will simply waste your time and indian recruiters are slave to them who will call you 10 times before the interview and won't even have the decency to reply to your mail once done.
