I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Goldman Sachs (Bengaluru) in Sep 2017
Interview
Following three rounds were conducted:
1. HackerRank Test - I passed this exam, it will give some tricky problems & we have to write code in java.
2. CoderPad Test: It will be conducted by someone from GS. He will throw the problem & ask for solution. The test was polite & person who conducts it is well experienced & asks tricky problems along with Time & Space complexity for same.
3. F2F Interview: First they scheduled it in mumbai, but run-time they change it to Bengaluru (2 days prior notice) This will be conducted by two persons. They will ask question regarding linkedList, hashmap, singly linked-list. Tree map, Binary Search tree. Also ask to write a pseudo code for BST insertion (recursive as well as iterative)
The funny thing was one of the interviewers is a Fresher Guy. (by looking at his behavior anyone can easily predict it)
The discussion went well, even after interview went well, they rejected me.
They were laughing while taking interview by looking at each other, they will stand-up & come to see your code all immature behaviors they will do.
These guys were not prepared for interview, they will keep looking at mobile & ask random question from google.
