Interview Experience | Product-Based Company | Fresher | Associate Software Engineer Role

My recruitment journey for the Associate Software Engineer role at Leadventure began with my resume being shortlisted. I then proceeded to the second round, which was an Aptitude Test (CCAT). This test required solving 50 questions in just 15 minutes, and I managed to answer over 45 questions.

The third round was an HR Screening, conducted via video conferencing. I answered all the basic questions asked by the HR representative, though I admit I felt a bit nervous during the interview. Unfortunately, a few days later, I received an email informing me that my application would not be moving forward.

Although I didn't advance past the HR screening, I learned from others that if I had, the technical round (Round 4) would have involved completing an assignment, solving a coding problem to check if a number is a palindrome using various approaches, answering questions on inheritance and polymorphism with real-life examples, addressing a basic system design question, and discussing my resume projects in detail. Round 5 and beyond would have included background verification and an offer letter.

Despite the outcome, I view this experience as a valuable opportunity to identify areas for improvement and prepare better for future opportunities.
