Description of Technical Interview:

1st technical round was a mixture of resume and DSA. So it was a total of 45 minutes.
For the first 20-25 minutes, we discussed project, advanced javascript concepts and ReactJS questions because these topics were on my resume. After that, the interviewer gave me 2 DSA questions. I don't remember the exact questions, but the twist is that I have to code both questions in JavaScript language.
2nd technical round is also 45 minutes.
In the first 15 minutes, questions were on C++, OOPS, and DBMS concepts. After that, we moved to the Hackerrank CodePair link, where six questions were given. 2 questions were on SQL queries, 3 questions were on DSA, and 1 question was on CSS and bootstrap. SQL queries were on inner and outer joins and a mixture of subqueries. 1st DSA question was on DFS, the 2nd DSA question was on string + math + sorting, and the 3rd DSA question was on Dp. I was able to solve four questions and gave the approach for Dp question.

Description of HR Round:

The HR round was about 20 minutes, in which we discussed projects on my resume, the tech stacks I used for my project and any alternatives to these tech stacks.
He told me to share my experience of previous interviews. Questions like why BNY MELLON and some managerial questions about my strengths and weaknesses were asked.

Preparation Strategy:

Try to learn basic things first. After that, you can move to advanced concepts.
Never ignore CS fundamentals like OOPs, DBMS, Operating systems.
And most importantly try to make a peer group in which you can discuss questions and different approaches to the same questions because this gives us clarity about topics.
And try to give coding contests because by giving contests you will be able to learn how to manage time in online test of any company.

Resources:

I used leetcode in my preparation time. I try to solve 6-7 questions daily.
And also gave contests on leetcode, and if you are interested in Competitive programming then you can also go for codeforces and codechef.
For DBMS, I completed a Sanchit Jain course on YouTube, and for OOPS, I used javatpoint.
