Rescheduled 1 st technical round - asked about my profile and experience. Technical question
Round 2 - Focussed more on DSA
Interview gave me a live DSA coding problem. It was a bit complicated to understand as when I questioned interviewer. He wasn't able to give me a proper understanding of it. Anyhow tried to solve it but was unsuccessful. Though after some time interviewer was giving hints on to solve but still I failed.
