Interview preparation journey

expand-icon
Journey
It was an off-campus opportunity. I applied with little hope of getting my resume shortlisted, but it did!! The off-campus nature of this opportunity meant I had to be proactive. I spent a considerable amount of time researching the company, understanding its values, the requirements and aligning my personal goals with Deloitte’s mission. This preparation gave me confidence during the interview process, allowing me to present myself authentically and demonstrate how my skills and aspirations matched the role.
Application story
I applied for the National Level Assessment 3.0 by Deloitte, through which they hire freshers. The entire process was conducted online. There were a total of three rounds, including the resume shortlisting round. I applied in February, and the whole process, up to the final round, took about 1 to 1.5 months to complete.
Why selected/rejected for the role?
One of the key factors in my selection was my ability to demonstrate adaptability and a continuous learning mindset. Deloitte, being a dynamic and fast-paced organization, values candidates who are not only skilled but also eager to grow and take on new challenges. By emphasizing my willingness to learn, adapt, and push beyond my comfort zone, I was able to show that I was a good fit for the team and the company’s culture.

Coding problem1

My interview was in the afternoon around 2:30 PM and went on for 30-40 minutes. Again, we had to choose our interview slot. It was held on multiple days at different time slots. It was an online interview.
During the interview majority of the discussion was related to my project. Regarding how the backend works, how it fetches data from users, what was my role in the project etc. I was also asked to create a similar web page.
Other questions were related to SQL and OOPS.
He asked some non-technical questions as well to check my presence of mind. For example: What would you do to prevent the scams and frauds done by customers on online shopping apps?

1. System Design

The interviewer asked me to write a front-end code using JavaScript. It was a basic question. Since my projects were related to the MERN stack, he asked me to write this code.

Problem statement - Create a web page to show different colours based on the heart rate input by the user.
For example: if the heart rate was too high, the button should turn red and give an alert to the user.

Problem approach

I created the basic structure using HTML and then manipulated the elements through JavaScript DOM. I explained all the code written by me to the interviewer.
