Topics: For Mphasis first round is AMCAT test which is consist of 3 sections aptitude, logical and English Vocabulary questions, I prepared well for this and cracked first round, Second round is SWAR round where one automated voice over phone and few case studies so have to catch and listen conversation properly and have to answer the questions by pressing correct answer number from dial pad. 3rd Round is technical I have mentioned java in my resume so the interviewer asked me the java related questions like oops concepts, static keyword, method overriding and method overloading difference, java threads concept question, 2 program he asked me to write one is reverse a string and another one is Fibonacci program, question about my College project that's it, it was about 30mins the interview duration for me. I prepared well for programming questions like first I prepared for most asked program questions in any interview to practicing programming conepts online and many more.
Tip

Tip 1 : Well prepare for AMCAT test.
Tip 2 : When it comes to technical round main important thing is Confident, so be confident and we'll prepared for programming concepts, well practiced for different types of programs and code snippets and your project you should know it well.
Tip 3 : For HR Round be confident and answer the questions well, they will check just body language and confidence, it will be just 10-15min round and HR will ask just about your personal questions like "tell me about your self", "are you fine with PAN India for relocation and all" "what you want to become leader or follower" etc. So my tip in this round is just answer well to HR and confidence and eye contact with interviewer should have and all d best:)

Wells FargoAdobeGoldman Sachs

You are given two strings, 'str1' and 'str2'. You have to find the length of the longest common substring.


A substring is a continuous segment of a string. For example, "bcd" is a substring of "abcd", while "acd" or "cda" are not.


Example:
Input: ‘str1’ = “abcjklp” , ‘str2’ = “acjkp”.

Output: 3

Explanation:  The longest common substring between ‘str1’ and ‘str2’ is “cjk”, of length 3.
Problem approach

First used the brute force to obtain the solution and then optimised the solution

SAP LabsWalmartFacebook

You are given a string 'STR'. The string contains [a-z] [A-Z] [0-9] [special characters]. You have to find the reverse of the string.

For example:

 If the given string is: STR = "abcde". You have to print the string "edcba".
follow up:
Try to solve the problem in O(1) space complexity. 
Problem approach

Step1 : First I stored string in a string variable name "original"
Step2 : Declared for loop to reverse the stored string character by character using "charAt(i)" here "i" is a integer variable defined in for loop for iteration purpose
Step3 : In for loop used logic as reverse = reverse + original (charAt(i)) here reverse is a string variable.

Given two integers, ‘N’ and ‘M’, your task is to find the sum of Fibonacci numbers between ‘fib(N)’ and ‘fib(M)’ where ‘fib(N)’ represents the Nth Fibonacci number and ‘fib(M)’ represents the Mth Fibonacci number. The sum is given by sum(N, M) = fib(N) + fib(N+1) + fib(N+2) … fib(M). Since the answer could be large, so you have to return the sum modulo 10^9 + 7.

The fibonacci relation is given by:

fib(0) = 0 
fib(1) = 1
fib(n) = fib(n-1) + fib(n-2), n >= 2, where fib(n) represents the nth fibonacci number.

Just used the brute forced first to obtain the solution and then optimised the solution.
