FICO Software Engineer-I interview questions

The interview process started with an online test that consisted of two easy-level coding questions based on basic Data Structures and Algorithms. Candidates who cleared the online round proceeded to the Group Discussion (GD) round, where communication skills, logical thinking, and clarity of expression were evaluated. Post-GD, shortlisted students had to appear for a pen-and-paper test, which was focused on System Design. In this round, we were asked to design a management system (for example, a Hospital Management System, Library Management System, etc.), demonstrating our ability to think in terms of system architecture, databases, and scalability. Finally, students who cleared the pen-and-paper round moved to the Technical Interview. The technical interview involved questions from: Core Java (OOPS concepts) Data Structures and Algorithms Discussion of the system design from the previous round Questions related to projects and internships mentioned in the resume.
