interview was very bad , the interviewer not know anything , he was googling the questions in front of me . also it was a resume screening round , he was unable to understand my resume as his domain was different , he didn't ask a single question on resume
it had online assessment, then interview round (on-campus)
online assessment had strings coding question - medium level and input output questions. medium level test over all, then interview depends highly on your luck and the interviewer
