Full Experience
Hi everyone, I recently interviewed at ServiceNow for the Software Engineer (IC2) role at their Hyderabad office. Here’s a quick breakdown of the process:
🔹 Round 1: DSA Jump Game II
Minimum Number of Swaps to Make the String Balanced
🔹 Round 2: DSA + HLD Remove K Digits
Merge Two Sorted Lists (without extra space)
One basic high-level design question. Good discussion overall.
🔹 Round 3: Hiring Manager Situation-based and behavioral questions
Discussion on past work
DSA variation of Majority Element (More then 3 distinct elements)
One HLD problem
🔸 Hiring Paused After this round, hiring was paused for the team I was interviewing with. HR contacted me after ~10 days and asked if I’d like to interview for a different team. I agreed.
🔹 Round 4: DSA + DB Design Modified Maximal Square (with coordinates)
One database design question
🔹 Round 5: DB Design + DSA Basic DB schema design
✅ Final Outcome Got the offer in May 2025.

I don't know how to comment while staying anonymous.
- I had applied and forgotten about it, but after a few months, the HR reached out to me, I’d say it was pure luck.
- I don't know the exact team.
