Me postulé a través de una agencia de empleos. Acudí a una entrevista en Kickdrum en nov 2018
Entrevista
Initially, there was a presentation about the company and the work culture, followed by questions and answers.
This was followed by online test (through HackerRank) which had a coding problem and a SQL problem. This round was for 90 minutes.
After this, next round was meeting with developers. This round involved discussing a system design and improving the same. This required good knowledge of SQL, data structures and algorithms. Unfortunately, could not get through this round.
Overall the experience was good. The interviewers and HR made the process comfortable.

Pregunta 1
How a SQL query can be tuned for better performance? (Not exactly this, but on similar lines)
It was good experience where interviewer kept helping me by passing small small hints and helped collaboratively to find efficient solution. Interviewer was very professional and provided me with sufficient time for the problems.

Me postulé a través de un reclutador. El proceso tomó 1 día. Acudí a una entrevista en Kickdrum (Nueva Delhi) en dic 2018
Entrevista
15 min presentation about the company, work culture and expectations.
1st round - Hackerrank test for 90 mins. 1 array based question and 1 sql query to write. Level - intermediate
2nd round - System design based round. An example scenario will be given and you need find faulty components and suggest solutions. Really liked this approach of targeting system design.
Too much weight on SQL.
Could not clear 2nd round.
Suggestion: Knowledge of SQL should not be mandatory.
