In this article, I am gonna share my experience of interviewing with Cloudera. All of this begin when Cloudera visited our campus for hiring in Aug-2020. ## Round 1 (Online Round) This was an online test conducted in HackerRank platform. The test consisted of 4 questions. The questions were of medium difficulty and involved some amount of logical thinking. ## Round 2 (Technical Round - I) The interview was conducted on zoom platform. The online live coding link was shared to do some programming. Firstly, the interviewer asked about myself and what are my hobbies and he came across my article writing hobby and he started exploring more about that. He asked the kind of articles I write and what platform... When he got to know about the python article series I wrote he asked some of the questions on python, one was on the python GIL. Coming to coding, I was asked three questions one was based on arrays and the other two were on trees. Questions were about Medium-Hard difficulty. I live coded them completely, followed the discussion about the solutions I wrote. About their complexities(space and time) and further improvements. The round ended with some of the questions to the interviewer by me. I asked questions like how is the work-life balance, what were the tech-stack they work upon and such questions. ## Round 3 (Techno-Managerial Round) In this round, there were a lot of discussions on various topics like OS, networking, distributed systems, etc... Also, some situation questions were also asked to test my behaviour during stress. And some discussions about the company and the round ended with this. The concentration of this round was more on distributed systems.
