Firstly I gave my introduction and then the interviewee asked me a few Questions from CS fundamentals:
Then he gave a Question related to LRU cache , there were two functions get(key) and create(key,value) . He asked me which data structures will be used to solve the problem and wanted to discuss about the approach, he didn't ask me to code it . I answered all the questions. Then he gave me a DSA question related to LRU cache . He didn't ask me to code it , he told we will discuss about the data structures used and the approach. There were two operations get(key) which returns the value of the key exist else null pr -1. And a create(key,value) operation which creates the key, value pair. I answered some sub parts of the question but I was not getting what exactly he was asking , so he changed the question and gave me another DSA question: There is a sorted array and a target value, we have to find the count of the target in the array. First I told that we can use a map but then he said to give a more optimal solution then I told we can use binary search and wrote the code and explained to him . Next he showed me 2 codes from implementation of OOPS, each from shallow copy and deep copy. He asked me to tell the output and I answered him with proper explanation. Then he asked if I have any questions. I asked some questions and the interview ended.

The next day I received a call from Zscaler that I have another interview in 3 hours which is the last round. In the interview, the interviewer asked me if I want to discuss my projects or CS fundamentals. I chose to discuss my projects. Then we discussed about my projects in detail. And one of my projects was part of my research internship at IIT Ropar. So he asked me questions about my internship experience, what questions I had in my mind when the project was introduced to me for the first time and he mainly focused on team work.
Then asked me a hypothetical question: if my project fails while demonstrating to the professor and tells me to rectify the error and to come after 7 days. What would I do in those 7 days to fix the errors.
I answered to his question and he seemed satisfied with my answer. Overall, I feel it went very well.
