D.E Shaw SDE Interview Experience On Campus Selected

Problem Preview

"1. Practise a lot of DSA and coding ( 1700 cf rating ) 2. Focus on system desgin For tests speed and accuracy both matters a lot as we need to solve 2-3 coding questions in 1 hr so practicing codeforces and giving regular contests in codeforces helps clearing online tests For interviews focus more on leetcode style questions and be perfect with your CV Parting Advice It's definitely not easy to maintain acads,cdc ,btp all at once during placements,so please focus on cdc and don't completely ignore acads , semester exams , just give minimal effort rather than ignoring completely. Work hard focus on health and also don't forget that you won't get another chance . It's ok if you didn't secure a good intership as it's the first experience and exposure to cdc , but never repeat mistakes which you have done during internship. Out your full effort into preparation of placements and it will definitely reward you. Do’s and Dont’s 1.Don't waste time on random playlists Your majority of time should go in coding and practicing the code . NEVER read the code and never assume that you have seen the code and you know what's happening, it's the worst habit to develop. Always write the code your self , run the code , debug the code , that's where learning begins . 2.Don't skip system design"
