SDE - 2

General introduction followed by a leetcode medium problem. Afterwards, there was a question on DB normalisation followed by Problem statement about writing a db query on join and grouping.
Then I was asked another coding problem on minimum platforms required by given trains and timings of departure and arrival.

After a day, I received meeting invite for next interview round.

Since the profile I was being interviewed was of java-backend, so I was asked many java-spring boot related questions. Some topics were SOLID principles, overriding concepts, RestTemplate, webclient, multithreaded gets and design patterns. Then I was asked about building and deploying of java based applications.
Afterwards, I was asked a leetcode medium problem. 

I was having intermediate feeling about this round that I may or may not get selected for further rounds.

But, on the next day I received meeting invite for next round. I felt really good and started preparing for the next round.

In this round, questions were being asked based on my resume and the work I wrote in my resume. I was being asked about the kind of tech I have worked upon before and projects I have made. We discussed about the features of the projects I have made till then and the shortcomings & enhancements of the projects showcased.
I was asked about high level designing of applications like load balancing, downtime-proof and managing configuration of application like permissions and access.

After couple of days, I received call from HR that I’ve cleared the rounds and shared meeting invite for HR round.

This round is a face to face discussion with an HR. It involves basic behavioural and scenario based questions. I was asked about the interest in tech stack and what is my goal and plan for forthcoming years.



Verdict: Selected for the profile.
