1. As soon as I fill the registration form the first step is to take short assessments on the Eduthrill platform.
2. One can take assessments any time according to their convenience there is no specific time for it.
3. One have to take atleast 20 assessments and have to score atleast 60% in them.
4. After 20 assessments one can take as many assessments as he/she wants to increase their score.
5. Each question has a specific time within which one has to answer it.(no negative marking)
6. One can take these 20 assessments in one go or according to their convenience.

A Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) is a directed graph that contains no cycles.

Topological Sorting of DAG is a linear ordering of vertices such that for every directed edge from vertex ‘u’ to vertex ‘v’, vertex ‘u’ comes before ‘v’ in the ordering. Topological Sorting for a graph is not possible if the graph is not a DAG.

Given a DAG consisting of ‘V’ vertices and ‘E’ edges, you need to find out any topological sorting of this DAG. Return an array of size ‘V’ representing the topological sort of the vertices of the given DAG.

For example, Consider the DAG shown in the picture.

alt tex

In this graph, there are directed edges from 0 to 1 and 0 to 3, so 0 should come before 1 and 3. Also, there are directed edges from 1 to 2 and 3 to 2 so 1 and 3 should come before 2.

So, The topological sorting of this DAG is {0 1 3 2}.

Note that there are multiple topological sortings possible for a DAG. For the graph given above one another topological sorting is: {0, 3, 1, 2}

Note:
1. It is guaranteed that the given graph is DAG.
2. There will be no multiple edges and self-loops in the given DAG.
3. There can be multiple correct solutions, you can find any one of them. 
4. Don’t print anything, just return an array representing the topological sort of the vertices of the given DAG.

This is a technical interview which was held on google meet. The interviewer helps me to be comfortable. He first asked me some basic questions on OOPS concepts like function overloading and overriding. Then he asked me to explain any of my project and also put some question around it. After that he asked me one DSA question and share a google docs on which I have to code it. Then we dry run the code and he was satisfied with the solution.

You are given two strings 'A' and 'B' of length 'N' and 'M' respectively, your task is to find the number of distinct occurrences of string 'B' in the string A as a subsequence.

Note:
1. A subsequence is a sequence generated from a string after deleting some characters of string without changing the order of remaining string characters.

2. 'A' and 'B' will be non-empty strings.

This round is also a Technical Interview round. The main focus of interviewer was on OOPS concepts. Around 30mins he came up with OOPS questions only like abstract class, inheritance, interfaces, exception handling and alot of other topics. Then he asked some DBMS concepts like normalization and some SQL queries for which I gave him satisfactory answer. He also asked questions around Data structures like what are queues, stack, hashmap etc. In the end he asked one DSA question around Linked List.

You are given two Singly Linked Lists of integers, which may have an intersection point.

Your task is to return the first intersection node. If there is no intersection, return NULL.


Example:-
The Linked Lists, where a1, a2, c1, c2, c3 is the first linked list and b1, b2, b3, c1, c2, c3 is the second linked list, merging at node c1.
