The selection process consisted of three distinct rounds, progressing from automated coding assessments to collaborative problem-solving, and concluding with an in-depth technical discussion. Round 1: SPOJ Online Assessment (Coding & Problem Solving) Round 2: Technical Scenario-Based Group Discussion (GD) Round 3: Final Technical & Project Interview Final Round Breakdown 1. Project & Security Fundamentals Project Overview: A detailed walkthrough of the core project, its architecture, and the technologies used. Security Concept: An explanation of phishing attacks, specifically tailored to how they related to or could impact the security model of the project. 2. Logic & Problem Solving Pattern Code: A live problem-solving task requiring the code logic for a specific pattern to be designed and explained. SPOJ Code Review: A deep dive into the logic, optimization choices, and edge cases of one of the solutions submitted during the first round. 3. Core Computer Science Concepts Binary Search: An explanation of the binary search algorithm alongside a real-world, intuitive example (such as finding a word in a physical dictionary or a page in a book). Database Selection (SQL vs. NoSQL): A architectural comparison explaining when to use a relational database (e.g., for structured data and ACID compliance) versus a NoSQL database (e.g., for scalability and unstructured data) within a project.
