Coding Round - **Number of Questions**: 3 Questions - **Breakdown**: 1 Easy, 2 Medium - **Key Problems**: - String search: Check if a given string is present in an array of strings. - Array Optimization: Find all pairs $(i, j)$ where $arr[i] > arr[j] * 3$. - *Note: Requires an optimized $O(n \log n)$ approach to pass large test cases.* ## 2. Technical Interview (One-to-One) - **Number of Questions**: 3–5 Questions - **Difficulty**: Medium - **Topics**: - **Heaps**: Implementation or priority queue applications. - **Two Pointers**: Used for array/string manipulation. - **Linked Lists**: Detecting cycles and finding the intersection point of two lists. ## 3. Database Design Round - **Focus**: System architecture and data modeling. - **Scenario**: Airport Booking System. - **Requirements**: - Draw/Explain ER Diagrams. - Perform Schema Design. - Write complex SQL queries based on the designed schema. --- ## **Tips** * **Communication is Key**: If you explain your logic confidently and correctly, interviewers may waive the requirement to write the full code for certain questions. * **Optimization**: For array pair problems, think beyond nested loops; consider modified Merge Sort or Fenwick tree logic for large constraints.

## I am sharing my interview experience with ICICI from last year -2025. I applied it through my campus placement drive as a fresher. ### ICICI came to IIT Delhi's placement season 2024–2025. It was listed as an ICICI Manager I. Manager I is a grade. It was open for all departments with no minimum CGPA criteria. # My profile at that time: I had an intern at a startup where I had built a recommendation model. I had been grinding LeetCode and Codeforces along with machine learning. I had successfully completed Andrew Ng's specialization course on ML and deep learning and practiced on Kaggle. # Online Assessment — 60 minutes At first we have CV shortlisting, where I got shortlisted. After that, I have to give an online assessment that contains only MCQ questions related to OOPs, DSA, Cpp, Java, and Python, which I successfully cleared. After that, I got a call from the placement cell that I have to give a personality test called personality profiler, where they asked me about how I will behave or react under some given conditions. Update 1—The interview shortlist comes on 30th November around 5 pm. Update 2—The interview was scheduled on the morning of 3rd December # Interview: It was 9 in the morning; the atmosphere was quite foggy and cold, and I was quite nervous. The interview is going to be the only one round with both technical and HR at the same time. ## They called me for Interview First question: “Tell about yourself.” I had prepared for this question and told about my name, my hometown, and my specializations along with my hobbies. Second question: “Explain any one of your projects.” I know this question will pop up, and I had prepared for this question by preparing my best project in depth. But as ICICI is a bank, I thought I should explain my project, which is relevant to the bank in any way. So instead of explaining about the project ‘AI Interviewer,’ I choose stock analysis by AI agent. I had been asked some cross questions regarding my project, which I answered successfully. Third Question: “Can you optimize the time taken to train ANN?” As there are many ways to optimize artificial neural networks. It starts with the hardware side, like using more powerful GPUs. Then I explained we can drop neurons in order to train the model faster. Then he asked me about some mathematical approaches, so I recalled Adam optimization, and I explained it in detail by drawing some formulas and images. Fourth question: “Forward and Back Propagation.” I started with forward propagation by considering a 2-layer neural network and similarly derived back propagation from it, which he seems satisfied with. ## Update 3 — Now my technical round is over and its for HR round 5. She asked me about why ICICI, my background, my future goals, and general HR questions, which I prepared before the interview and answered optimally, at least according to me. Update 4: I got a call from POC that they were willing to offer me, which I gladly accepted. I felt a surge of excitement and joy. Update 5: HR called me and congratulated me, after which we had a professional handshake and goodbye. 3rd December 2024 will be a special day for me as I get my first job. It was my first and last interview at IIT Delhi. Thanks for reading.

The recruitment process at 4W Technologies is rigorous, transitioning from theoretical MCQs to multi-hour practical frontend builds. ## 1. Round 1: MCQ Assessment (1 Hour) Topics: Core CS fundamentals including DBMS, C++, JavaScript, and Data Structures (DSA). Focus: Predicting output for tricky code snippets and understanding database normalization. ## 2. Round 2: Offline Coding Challenge (30 Mins) Format: Solving logic problems on a local machine without online IDEs. Key Problems: Even-Odd Sort: Sort an array such that all even numbers appear before odd numbers. Valid Palindrome II: Determine if a string can become a palindrome by removing at most one character. Click & Solve: Sort Array by Parity Click & Solve: Valid Palindrome II ## 3. Round 3: Frontend Task (3-4 Hours) Scenario: Design a Login/Signup page with a "Left Slider" transition. Technical Requirements: Integration with a provided Postman collection (POST methods). Implementation of Token Generation: Upon valid login, the app must handle a token returned from the mock/API backend. Validation for fields: first_name, last_name, email, and password. ## 4. Round 4: Technical & HR Interview Architecture: Explaining the design choices and folder structure used in the Frontend Task. Deep Dive: Discussion on projects, focusing on React, Node.js, or other frameworks listed on your resume. System Design: Discussing the architecture of an Online Reading Platform (Handling book storage, user progress, and concurrent reads).

✨ Excited to Share! Selected by Versa Network ✨
I’m happy to announce that I have been selected after successfully clearing my interview at Versa Network.
The interview process covered a wide range of topics and tested both fundamentals and practical understanding. The key areas included:
Walkthrough of my work, responsibilities, and the project I developed. 🔹 OOPS Concepts – Four pillars of OOPS, virtual functions, and memory layout. 🔹 DBMS – Core concepts and real-world application. 🔹 DSA – Two coding questions (one from LeetCode arrays and one based on linked list basics and implementation). 🔹 Computer Networks – Difference between TCP and HTTP, and related networking principles.
I’m grateful for this opportunity and excited for the journey ahead. Looking forward to contributing, learning, and growing with the team! 🚀
