I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Fidelity Investments (Mangalore) in Aug 2017
Interview
There were four round of interview,1st-written test,2nd and 3rd technical interview,4th hr interview
Round I
This round was 60 multiple choice questions(20-general aptitude, 20-technical, 20-again technical(based on either communication/electronics/computer science)).Technical was a bit easy and aptitude took time to solve.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Round II(F2F-technical)
They shortlisted around 60 students for the second round. Second round was technical F2F. I was lucky to have a panel member from ECE and he didn’t know much about Data Structures(I’m from IT :-P). So, he asked some basic datastructure questions:
Name any some of the data structures you know – I told linked lists, stacks, queues and trees, etc
He started with Linked list and asked code for reversal of linked list
Deleting a particular node in a Circular Linked List
Binary Search logic and its code
Any other search algorithms he asked and I said Linear search, etc
Time complexity comparision of different search algorithms
Then, he moved onto Trees
What is balancing of a tree?How to do it?
What is AVL tree?(He asked to explain and made me to balance an AVL tree as well as write a code for it)
Types of trees.
C/C++:
First question was how do you rate your knowledge in C/C++?- I told 8-9 out of 10.So, he started asking.
Difference between Macro and Inline?
What is the new thing you learned about C/C++? (I told him how to calculate sizeof without using sizeof() operator)
What’s the silliest mistake you’ve done and after recognising the mistake, you thought as ohh !!! this simple mistake I made??
Structure Padding question:
struct temp{int a ;char b;int c;}
What is the sizeof this structure?Answer:12(not 9 because of structure padding)
