Keka HR Interview Experience for Backend Developer

Round 1

• This was an MCQ round consisting of three sections containing 30 questions each. You are expected to solve them within 2 to 2.5 hours.
• As for me, the order of difficulty goes as Verbal< Quantitative< DI.
• You can expect questions from speed distance and time, ratio and proportion, volume and mixtures, work and time, completing the odd series, simple interest, and some probability in the Quantitative section. DI comprises certain graph-based and logical reasoning for patterns. Lastly verbal, comprises of comprehension and finding errors in sentences, antonyms, and synonyms.

Around <=100 members were selected out of 700.

Tip: Prepare your aptitude thoroughly and try to solve 20 per section. This enhances your chances for the next round and lastly your scores will be released immediately and the verdict for next round if you are selected.

Round 2 (Group Discussion)

• People were split into 7 per batch and topics like online education vs offline education, digital payments vs Cash payments, etc.
• Initially, you will be given 5 minutes to prepare yourselves. Then it goes on for 30 minutes.
• You will be notified of the next round via mail

Tip: Try to look for some unique points regarding your topic because a bunch of the points your teammates will be repeating. You need to stand aside from others in this regard. Make 2 to 3 valid points and stay calm. Don't be noisy and don't keep interrupting.

Round 3 (Coding round - 1)

• There are four questions in this round easy to low-mid level and 40 minutes for you to solve.
• There is no compiler provided, you will be writing in plain text. (Stay careful of syntactical errors)

Tip: If you have sound coding knowledge, then you can cheese them at least 3 out of 4.

Round 4 (System Test)

• There is only one question mid-difficulty but this time you write your code in IDE(Compiler provided).
• Make sure not to hit compile and run multiple times at once. In my case, it got badly stuck.

Round 5 (Technical +HR)

This round is basically taken by your super seniors so don't be reluctant in answering properly.

• Introduce yourself.
• 2 puzzles based on a 7m of length rod and crossing a river when you have lion, grass, and goat and they all need to depart successfully.
• 2 coding questions based on sliding window easy, and one low-mid difficulty. You don't need to write the complete code just explain the algorithm in a text file sharing your screen.
• How do you approach a question if you don't know the solution?
• And some project-based questions.

Tip: Refrain from any mischievous act. Prepare thoroughly. Stay calm and reply to whatever approach strikes your brain first. Communication is the key.

Verdict: Selected.
