As usual coding round was the first round for the selection. Among 600 students 32 students were selected for the technical round. The interviewer was so calm and friendly. she introduced herself and then she asked my introduction. She asked me to show the project if hosted. moving forward she asked me a puzzle question then she asked me some DSA theoretical questions.
