In the programming round, I encountered a question that required me to join three SQL tables and use a GROUP BY clause. This was followed by a programming question that involved data structures like matrices and arrays. Finally, there was a question that tested my knowledge of front-end web technologies, specifically HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
