I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Mastercard (Pune) in Sep 2023
Interview
So Interview asked me to introduce myself . Then he asked me for what purpose I use GitHub and linked. Then he asked what other fields interest me,so I replied cyber security based on which he asked me to differentiate between privacy and security(hard to frame it). And then switched to the Technical part, starting with the language I preferred C++.

There were 4 rounds in total, 1st round was OA where they asked questions related to C language and your core concepts, then in 2nd and 3rd round project discussion took place and 4th round was HR round
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Mastercard in Nov 2025
Interview
Had a back-to-back interview with a 60 minute technical interview, followed by a 30 minute behavioral interview. Both were pretty chill. For the technical, I had the hangman problem other people mentioned but not your typical leetcode like problem. Behavioral was a lot of "tell me about a situation..." questions.

Interview
Pretty simple, no OA just Technical and Behavioral. Interviews were kind and helpful which was definitely something to appreciate. Technical was a interval problem, maybe a LC easy-medium broken down into parts.
