Interview
2 interviewers around asking DSA + OS questions . These required very deep understanding about the system behaviour . Then they have asked me about my projects as well . The problem statement and the solution of the project must be explained properly

Question 1
They have written a code snippet and asked how this will exactly print this particular statement in this particular window ?
followed by a quick recruiter screen where they check your background and interest in the role. After that comes a technical phone or video interview with an engineer, where they test your knowledge in areas like Linux, networking, storage, automation, and troubleshooting real-world system issues. If you pass, you move on to panel interviews with multiple engineers and sometimes a manager
