Hike Interview Questions

coding round then assignment and two interview rounds. everything was easy if you know the basics its toot easy to get cleared have confidence on yourself. coding was as simple as geek for geeks.

There were 5 rounds 1. Product round 1 2. Analytics 3. Design Knowledge 4. Product round 2 5. HR round All of them were completed on the same day & feedback was provided after every round. The interviewers ensured to help whenever there was a hiccup & ensured a smooth process

First round was Simulation round followed by a F2F interview covering discussion about Simulation round and some technical discussion around Threading, ViewModel, ExcuterService, Handler, Looper, RxJava, Picasso, app optimisations, .

Application : Applied through a consultancy from Instahyre.com Interview The first round was on hackerrank, had to solve 2 questions in 90 mins After that, I was called for face-to-face rounds at their office in New Delhi on a Saturday. It was a recruitment drive, many other candidates were called. There we were asked to make an Android app with image search functionality using flick apis, i.e user will search for a keyword, you have to show photos in 3*3 grid in an Android app. After that, I had a discussion with one of their Engineers. I felt like he was not interested in taking the interview. He asked some questions about android, java multithreading. Felt like he was sad for coming to the office for taking interviews on a Saturday. and the HR lady told me that she will get in touch with me regarding result and feedback, But even after sending emails she didn't respond. Highly Unprofessional Behaviour, Seemed like they wanted to hire a 2-3 experienced guy. Very bad experience. Also felt company is also very confused with their product, first creating a lot of features then stopping them to focus on the core product.

The interview was scheduled by recruiters directly as I have enormous experience in Android. The interview was of 5 rounds. 1. Coding test(using laptop) 2. Basic Android + Architecture 3. Data Structure + Android 4. More into Android 5. DS + Algo with Senior Employee Overall you will not find any difficulty handling android + DS + algo if you are an above average person. But, what really pi**ed me off is the final round(one of the most important round) by a person who has no idea how a complete mobile development works and starts asking you about backend just because he is from a backend team and expects you to answer. Further, they expect you to answer the only way( god way) that they are aware of for solving the given question. The moment you bring other solutions, you are rejected!

1 telephonic coding round, 2 f2f coding round, 1 f2f design round, 1 technical coding/design round with hiring manager. Questions around linked list, arrays, distributed systems. The process is good.

Over call for about 40 minutes. Few basic questions followed by HR questions. Fairly easy process for a prepared candidate. But you should be clear about the profile you are going to work on.

Was called up by the HR and asked for a time when they can set up a exploratory call with me to understand my profile better, and check if I am suitable for the role. After few days, we had a call but to my surprise, it was one of their data scientist who took the interview, which I suppose was to be an exploratory call with the Hiring Manager/HR . The interview went for an Hour. It was been 45 days and I still awaiting the feedback of the discussion, was just informed that they got "some" feedback and will let me know their final results in some more time., I had mailed them multiple times for a feedback now and still awaiting - Neither rejection, nor +ve.

It was a telephonic interview, I was asked about my last work & the one before that. At around 30 mins into the interview, suddenly the interviewer said he's getting another call & he will call me back. It felt weird to me as that has never happened before to me even with the big companies. I thought maybe I'll get a call later that day, or next day, I waited but it never came. Basically he realized that I was not fit for the role, abruptly cut the interview in between to save his precious time, did not have a minimum courtesy to let me know, very unprofessional behavior.

The dress code was casual. The interviewers themselves were dressed casually. I wore an old T-shirt to the interview. There were 4 rounds. No HR round. First round was coding test, then a written test. Then two interview rounds.
