Virtual interview -- Asked a series of questions regarding my projects (and which were my favorite) and also about my experience as an intern. Overall very straightforward and not too in depth.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I was asked basic questions such as technical experience in my field and challenges I've faced when working teams. Also, how I overcame or faced those challenges.
HR was the first round
Followed by HM
HR asked for availability and resume then just disappeared
Even after following up, no response
Then next week for the same role, same message she sent to a friend of mine

Question 1
They asked for availability and then totally ghosted me
1. DSA Round (Easy Level)
They usually don’t go very deep into complex algorithms. Expect fundamentals like:
Anagram check (e.g., compare two strings efficiently)
Palindrome check (string or number)
Basic array/string manipulation
Sometimes simple hashing or sorting logic
2. DBMS Basics
What is a primary key / foreign key
Difference between SQL joins (INNER, LEFT, RIGHT)
Basics of normalization
Simple query writing
They usually keep it conceptual + a few practical questions.
3. OOPs Concepts
Very standard questions, such as:
Pillars of OOP: Encapsulation, Inheritance, Polymorphism, Abstraction
Real-life examples
Difference between overloading vs overriding
Why OOP is useful
They may ask you to relate this to your project.
4. Puzzle / Logical Thinking
These are not super hard—just to test reasoning:
Basic math/logical puzzles
Pattern-based questions
Situational problem solving
5. Project Discussion
Explain your project clearly:
Problem statement
Your role
Tech stack
Be ready for:
“Why did you choose this approach?”
“What challenges did you face?”
“How would you improve it?”
