Advice from candidates
4 pieces of advice, in their own words. Names removed.
The interviewer first asks which part of coding you like the most (From Graphs, Dynamic Programming, Greedy, etc..) and then asks questions based on that. At last the interviewer asks CSE questions.
technical interview · 2020-21
The interviewer you get may or may not know python and he asks you to write pseudo code for any question he asks. (*My interviewer is not a python coder)*
interview · 2020-21
Write code such that the interviewer understands *(This is the key for selection)*. I feel that I could not convey my code. For example, Python dictionaries can be done using G = {} whereas he tells you to write a class for it since (s)he understands it using the class.

Be prepared for CSE stuff too *(Databases, Operating Systems, Compilers etc)* like B+ trees, Normal forms, paging, semaphores, phases of compilers *(lexical, syntax, ..)* etc.
