Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Take home assignment which you need to complete in a week, any programming language of your choice
I applied online. I interviewed at GIC in Jul 2024
Interview
The interview is pretty straight, I was given a codility problem.
I solved everything and wrote E2E test cases. 110% documentation. Code comments etc. All guidelines were followed. I covered Edge cases as well. Spent almost 3 days and nights and a weekend to get it ready, as I was extremely busy with my regular work as well.
After a few days got a response from the coordinator that I didn't clear the round and a generic that the assignment did not match the criteria.
I replied to the recruiter that the assignment is 100% per requirement and more. and I would need more details, specifically on the assignment failing to meet the criteria. Again, got a generic response stating functionality and other aspects did not meet my expectations.
But the expectations were 100% met. I replied with feedback to respect the candidate's time and dedication to the assignment and give them detailed feedback, maybe put 20 minutes into writing the email for people who have spent days working on that assignment.

Question 1
Question was about booking system. Some seats should be booked in a specific order, like from middle or from right.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at GIC (Singapore) in Aug 2023
Interview
1. Take home assessment is given which is to be completed in a week. SOLID concepts, clean coding, unit tests and the like should be added as part of your solution. 2. If your solution is accepted, then the next round will see you sitting with senior developers to go over your solution, and/or make some live modifications. Questions will be asked about your prior roles and experience. 3. Interview with the team(s). A thorough review of your work history and an evaluation of your suitability for the role. Come prepared to deep dive on sections of your CV. One of the better interviews I have been through, as the skills on display are directly linked to the job. Sadly, I did not make it past the deep dive round.
