    • A min heap ensures the parent node is less than its children. Example: [1, 3, 5, 7, 9] where 1 is the root.

    • A max heap ensures the parent node is greater than its children. Example: [9, 7, 5, 3, 1] where 9 is the root.

    • To insert a new element, add it at the end and 'bubble up' to maintain heap property.

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: There was one programming question to be solved and submitted. The question was based on Travelling salesman problem
Tips: Be familiar with rather popular questions
Duration: 1 hour
Total Questions: 1

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: The first thing the interviewer did was to take a look at my resume and asked me to tell about the projects i had done. I explained a few that i thought were the better ones. Then he asked about the areas of interest. I mentioned about AI and then we discussed my AI project in detail. After that he asked the above mentioned questions. I answered all of them as they were pretty standard and can be found online easily.
Tips: Search for previous interviews and go through the questions and answers. They help a lot. Also be prepared about everything on your resume

Round: HR Interview
Experience: Nothing more to tell. Asked mostly standard HR type questions
Tips: Prepare yourself for all the cliched HR questions

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: The interviewer saw my resume and e also asked me about my interests. He saw that I had completed machine learning on coursera. So we started discussed ML a great deal (as it turned out later, the guy worked on ML). It started from basic gradient descent, stochasticgradient descent, K means clustering, recommender systems. Our discussion on recommender systems continued to types and uses of different systems in different contexts e.g. how is a movie recommender different to at of Amazon (this was because I told him that i was doing a course on recommender systems). Between all this we also discussed some puzzles and some physics(as it was one of my interests)

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: The Aptitude test consisted of 60 questions to be completed in a duration of 60 minutes. The questions were very simple and the key here was to be quick in solving puzzles and problem solving. Next, there was an online coding round which consisted of 3 questions to be completed in a duration of 60 minutes. The questions here were also very basic including topics from pointers and strings. Overall, the test was easy to crack and didn't need any prior preparation.
Tips: Just practice some aptitude tests online. Also, be thorough with the basics of pointers and strings for the coding round.
Duration: 120 minutes
Total Questions: 63

Round: Group Discussion
Experience: The group discussion was totally driven by the hiring team. They chose the speaker and went through each of us one by one. It was a pretty short Group discussion.
Tips: Just listen to everyones points and keep noting your arguments down. If you are chosen to start the GD, then you will be most probably chosen to conclude it too. So, try to take everybody's opinions and shape a precise and to-the-point conclusion.
Duration: 15 minutes

General Tips: Just be cool throughout the process. It has nothing that can be prepared for.
Skill Tips: Practice. Practice. Practice.
Skills: Basic Coding, General Aptitude
Duration: 2
College Name: IIT Madras
Motivation: The projects described in the Internship description were quite interesting.
Funny Moments: Got selected without a single interview! That's partly disappointing since we didn't get to discuss our intern profiles with them. It's funny that such a huge company can hire interns without even having an interview. It's not funny though.
