It was a mix of mathematical aptitude, logical ability, and puzzles along with 2 programming questions of easy and medium level. Time was enough and no sectional time was present. 1-2 mcqs on SQL were also present.
This round was immediately followed by an SHL aptitude test which was basically a quick limited time check of your verbal ability and maths because many questions were to be done in 1 hour.



A matrix on n*n size is given with 0s and 1s as values. Wherever a 1 is present make the complete row and column of that element equal to 1. At the end tell how many 1s are present till the complete operation is completed.
To do it in minimum time complexity, start from first index, maintain 2 variables of number of of columns and number of rows completely made 1 till now. maintain a variable num=0. Now whenever a 1 is encountered add n -num_column and n-num_row to num and also increment num_row and num_col.
It was an online video interview round on HackerEarth with simultaneous code option. It was mostly justifying your resume in the first 15 minutes. After that OOPS was majorly asked. Basics of programming including questions on STL were asked. A class which required inheritance was asked by the interviewer to write. I was helped by the interviewer if i got stuck somewhere, Some questions on implementation of hashmaps and priority queues were also asked. A puzzle was asked which luckily struct to me at that moment.
I used inheritance and also used hashmaps to maintain a map of an integer for every department.
