Tip
Tip

Tip 1 : Extensively practice on SQL, SQL queries, extracting data, different types of joins as I had to solve and extract specified data from a dataset in front of the interviewer during the interview. Also, there is a telephonic pre-interview round that is focussed on SQL and Statistics basics. You need to clear that to move to the interviews.
Tip 2 : Practice lots of guesstimates, puzzles, problem solving and Case studies. Guesstimates may include questions like estimating the total area under warehouses in a specific region (I was asked something similar to this). 
Tip 3 : Extensively read about the company, JD and the core values of the company. They seem to focus extensively on these values and you need to prove that you fit within them.
Tip 4 : Be really cool, confident and you need to know even the tiniest details of your project work. Grinding on projects and tech skills are a part of all interview rounds.

Resume tip

Tip 1 : Clean and Concise, only put things that you are very much comfortable in answering even to the tiniest details.
Tip 2 : Heavy focus on technical Skills. Mention the exact tech skills and project work/tech you used on those projects because they really pay attention to every nook and corner of your resume. Include you extra-curriculars as this is extremely important during the interview process. They will ask you to mention/describe situations where you showcased a particular skill (for hints related to these, refer to the core values section of their website.)

Received a sudden call from one of the interviewers (Came to know this later as first round interview was with the same person). No background disturbances, but they took me by surprise.

They asked about the internship experiences, technical knowledge(What I was comfortable in), SQL basic questions like order of query etc., some statistics related questions such as mean median mode and their application differences.

Afternoon

1. Puzzles

Four people need to cross a rickety bridge at night. Unfortunately, they have only one torch and the bridge is too dangerous to cross without one. The bridge is only strong enough to support two people at a time. Not all people take the same time to cross the bridge. Times for each person: 1 min, 2 mins, 7 mins and 10 mins. What is the shortest time needed for all four of them to cross the bridge?

You have two jars, 50 red marbles and 50 blue marbles. You need to place all the marbles into the jars such that when you blindly pick one marble out of one jar, you maximize the chances that it will be red. When picking, you’ll first randomly pick a jar, and then randomly pick a marble out of that jar. You can arrange the marbles however you like, but each marble must be in a jar.

Evening.
This round is with the co-founder as he acts as the hiring manager as well. 
This round is the most tricky one and you really need to be very careful in what you answer in this interview.

1. Basic HR Questions

1. Family background.
2. Why should I be hired.
3. Guesstimates (AGAIN!!!)
4. Puzzles (BASIC and INTERMEDIATE levels)
5. Expectations from the company.
6. When I can begin work.
7. Existing offers that I had (I had 2 offers by then so some questions were asked on that)
8. Core values of the company and how am I a suitable fit.

Problem approach

Tip 1 : Be true, confident and calm
Tip 2 : Give smart and short answers rather than over-describing anything.
