Selected Interview preparation journey
Journey
I was unaware of this coding stuff till my school life. I got to know about the field of computer science in my class 11th. I found it interesting and decided that I would pursue my career in the field of computer science. I was admitted to B.Tech CSE and learned various concepts like DSA and all. I was advised that DSA. is a must for getting placed, so I started practicing it on a daily basis.
Application story
I got a message in my group about Swiggy visiting our campus to hire SDE-1. As I was in my fourth year, I was sure that I was going to apply for it. I started preparing accordingly. I looked at some previous interview questions from Swiggy, but I think the time was insufficient to prepare, so I was rejected in this interview process.
Why selected/rejected for the role?
I think I had prepared well for the interview process, so I was able to solve the coding problems which is why I was selected.

Given an undirected and disconnected graph G(V, E), containing 'V' vertices and 'E' edges, the information about edges is given using 'GRAPH' matrix, where i-th edge is between GRAPH[i][0] and GRAPH[i][1]. print its DFS traversal.
V is the number of vertices present in graph G and vertices are numbered from 0 to V-1.
E is the number of edges present in graph G.
