The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at InMobi (Bengaluru) in May 2014
Interview
Applied online via linked-in. They replied back after a month. First scheduled for telephonic interview which they didn't do. Then I called asking for reason they told me they thought of calling me. So they called me for f2f in same week.
HR didn't send the address. I had to search and confirm. Then they didn;t tell which floor in building. I had to look at 3 floor of inmobi asking for reception.
They asked me to come at 1030. they arrived in office late. Interviewer was not informed about interview a day before. So he came late by 1145. I was waiting whole time. HR told me he is stuck in traffic and Interviewer told he didn't know about interview. I was supposed to finish interview and go back to office by 1 but hr mismanaged whole interview and I went back home at 3.
Company has free culture, lots of funky colored walls, good food etc.
Very unprofessional.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
3 rounds:
1st:
a: tell me about your self, projects, skills.
b: dig more in project, What I could have done, what mistakes, what design pattern, etc.
He was very helpful.
2nd
a: find if two string are anagram. He was interested in which lang I used.
b: find palindrome. Gave first O(n2) solution in Python. He was more interested in semicolon i missed while explanation. Didn't get chance to explain other soln asked me next question.
c: letter asked to design web-service to serve some kind of service. Implementation required to key value mapping. value was a list. So if particular key is not present you won;t get any list. He was saying in, dict[key].append(num) when key is not valid will give AttributeError instead of KeyError. I too succumbed in it. I didn't know if he was checking me or he didn't know the correctly.
3rd:
They keep me waiting for next 2 hrs to tell me, next person is busy today. They will call me later.
