The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Flipkart (Bengaluru) in Nov 2015
Interview
I was already an intern at Flipkart when I appeared for the interview so I didn't have to go through the machine coding round. I had one face to face technical interview with an SDE 2 from a team different than the one I was currently working with. The interview focussed a bit on the work I was already doing at the moment and then moved on to standard questions much like the ones you'll find on GeeksForGeeks and other interview preparation sites. There was a 1hr time constraint on the interview. The first question was related to stacks. The second one was a more broad, open ended question in which I had to constantly make assumptions along the way and take feedback from the interviewer. I was lucky to have a very good interviewer who kept guiding me along with insightful hints when I got stuck. It helps to keep thinking out loud during the entire interview process.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Design a Data Structure SpecialStack that supports all the stack operations like push(), pop(), isEmpty(), isFull() and an additional operation getMin() which should return minimum element from the SpecialStack. All these operations of SpecialStack must be O(1). To implement SpecialStack, you should only use standard Stack data structure and no other data structure like arrays, list, etc.
