Interview preparation journey

Journey

My journey began with strengthening my basics in programming and problem-solving. I consistently practiced coding, revised core subjects, and improved my communication skills. Along the way, I faced failures, but each attempt taught me something new and made me more confident. With continuous learning, mock interviews, and guidance from seniors, I gradually improved and finally felt prepared enough to face the interviews. This entire process helped me grow both technically and personally

Application story

I applied through our college’s placement drive after the company registration link was shared by the Training and Placement Cell. Once I submitted the form with my details, I received further updates about the process. The company conducted the initial assessments, shortlisted candidates, and then scheduled the interviews. The entire journey—from application to interview—was organized and communicated clearly through the placement cell.

Why selected/rejected for the role?

I was rejected because my performance in the coding round did not meet the cut-off. Some test cases didn’t pass, and overall other candidates performed better, so I couldn’t move forward in the process.

The round was conducted online, and the timing was comfortable, not too late. Everything was well coordinated by the placement team. Since this round was mainly a coding test, there was no interaction with an interviewer. The overall experience was organized and stress-free.

1. Longest Subarray With Sum K

Asked in company

You are given an array 'a' of size 'n' and an integer 'k'.

Find the length of the longest subarray of 'a' whose sum is equal to 'k'.

Example :

Input: ‘n’ = 7 ‘k’ = 3
‘a’ = [1, 2, 3, 1, 1, 1, 1]

Output: 3

Explanation: Subarrays whose sum = ‘3’ are:

[1, 2], [3], [1, 1, 1] and [1, 1, 1]

Here, the length of the longest subarray is 3, which is our final answer.

Problem approach

Step 1: I first tried a brute-force approach using two nested loops to check all possible subarrays. It worked for small inputs, but the time complexity was too high (O(n²)), so it wasn’t efficient.
Step 2: After reviewing the constraints, I realized I needed to optimize the approach. I looked for a way to avoid recalculating sums repeatedly.
Step 3: I then used the prefix-sum + HashMap technique. By storing the earliest occurrence of each prefix sum, I was able to check if a subarray with sum K existed in constant time.
Step 4: This optimized approach reduced the time complexity to O(n), and it handled negative numbers as well. The solution became efficient, and I successfully found the longest subarray with sum K.

Face to Face

Duration60 minutes

Interview date20 Nov 2025

Coding problem1

The Hyderabad face-to-face technical round was conducted during the daytime in a professional and quiet environment. The interviewer focused on problem-solving skills, asking questions on DBMS and Operating Systems. The round involved logical and coding problems, and the interviewer was professional, observing candidates’ approach and reasoning carefully.

1. DBMS

What is a Database? (Learn)
What is DBMS? (Learn)
Difference between DBMS and RDBMS. (Learn)
What are primary key, foreign key, and unique key? (Learn)
What is normalization? Explain 1NF, 2NF, 3NF, BCNF. (Learn)
What is denormalization and when is it used? (Learn)
Explain ACID properties in a transaction. (Learn)

Problem approach

Tip 1: Understand concepts, not just definitions — try to explain with examples, as interviewers often ask scenario-based questions.
Tip 2: Practice SQL queries regularly — focus on joins, subqueries, aggregation, grouping, and complex queries.
Tip 3: Solve previous interview questions on DBMS and OS to get familiar with common patterns.
