Interview questions [2]
Question 1
first he asked me to introduce myself, then a coding question to find the sum of the unit digit of the elements present in the array and check if the sum is divisible by 10, print yes or no accordingly.
then he asked 2nd coding question to print the vowels from my name. Then there were some basic hr question like are you comfortable for any shift, willing to relocate, tell me about you city in 60secs.
easy cs fundamentals along with one coding question - usually very easy . couple of common hr questions like if we are willing to relocate and all.
overall easy - just be confident.
