I applied through college or university. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at MAQ Software (Noida)
Interview
It was a fairly straightforward process that included a data structures and algorithms (DSA) based live coding round followed by an HR interview. Both rounds were of medium to difficult level, but I was able to successfully clear them.
3 rounds of interview , very unprofessional interviews by the Founders. The last interview is taken by the Founder and the person was nothing but condescending , would never choose to work here, they will not re-imburse your travel expenses for the onsite interviews , that should give you a picture of the work culture there
