I applied through other source. I interviewed at Simplr (Bengaluru)
Interview
The interview process was quite lengthy and required significant time investment. Despite my relevant experience in .NET, Angular, SignalR, and WCF, the interviewer was dismissive of my hands-on skills without proper evaluation. The approach felt unstructured and unprofessional. Candidates should be prepared for an extended process and potential bias in skill assessment.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
You are given a list of tasks where each task has dependencies on other tasks. The tasks are represented as a dictionary, where:
The key is the task name (a string).
The value is a list of tasks that must be completed before this task can be executed.
Write a program to determine the fastest valid execution order, ensuring that each task runs only after its dependencies are completed.
Example Input:
{
"a": ["b", "c"],
"b": ["c", "d", "e"],
"c": ["d"],
"d": []
}
Expected Output:
d → c → b → a
