This experience describes a recruitment process that began with an inter-college hackathon, followed by two interview rounds for a Software Developer role. The candidate was ultimately not selected.
Round 1: Collaborative Innovation (Inter-college hackathon - offline)
This round was an intense inter-college hackathon where teams brainstormed and developed innovative solutions to real-world problems. The atmosphere was enthusiastic, with teams creating prototypes and presenting their ideas to judges. The candidate's team was announced as one of the winners, finding the accomplishment gratifying.
Round 2: Technical Interview (online)
This comprehensive technical interview tested expertise in Java, C++, and C fundamentals. Questions also covered SQL and software testing. The candidate faced challenging questions related to Java and SQL, and had to solve intricate puzzles. Interviewers encouraged candidates to think on their feet and provide logical solutions. Despite their best efforts, the candidate "fell short in this round."
Round 3: A Blend of Technical and HR (online)
This final round was intended to assess further technical proficiency, communication skills, and teamwork ability. However, the candidate did not proceed to this round as they were eliminated in the second technical interview.
