I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Freshworks (Chennai) in Mar 2017
Interview
Four rounds
All technical
First round
Telephonic round, where the interviewer asked me to code for simple data structures problem on a tool called collabedit.
The interviewer was really friendly and engaging. He gave me ample time to prepare my solution. And asked me to first explain the solution and made sure I solved all the edge cases. And then made me write the code. The code was not run on a compiler. They simply wanted a code without errors.
Second Round
F2F where the interviewer asked me questions on the things I mentioned on resume. Be thorough in what you know.
Questions on TCP/IP, HTTP/HTTPS, JMS, APIs, web services and their types. They asked me these questions because I have mentioned that worked on web services.
Tough one. I did not do that round well.
One algorithms question - To solve the longest common sub sequence.
Design a grocery shop database. I created tables based on Customer, products, Order.
One complex SQL based on the database I designed for grocery shop.
I did the db design and sql okay. And I solved the algorithms problem without any issues.
Third Round
One puzzle. I solved it. It was easy.
One simple SQL query. I wrote it fine.
Questions on data-structures. Like how to reverse a stack. And it's complexities.
I felt the third round was easy. Considering only very few questions were asked.
Fourth Round
By the time I got to this round, I was really exhausted.
I got one problem on chess board. I didn't completely solve all the cases.
I was asked to apply data structure to implement an LRU(Least Recently Used) cache.
I did not complete it.
After this round I was asked to go home. If there is anything they would call me back. I felt bad. Because this usually means bad news.
But after two weeks, I was offered the job.
