Directi Interview Questions

Application

I applied through other source. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Directi (New York, NY (US)) in April 2019.

Interview

HR round was good. After that we was given Accounting test. Normally company gives check list kind of question, but here they had written some accounting question in word and it was not well arrange. Wasted a lot of time on typing. Questions where not clear as for eg there was a question on bank reconciliation which was really confusing for me. If they really have to judge an account they could have set a better question test. For a company like Directi, i was disappointed with Accounting test.
After that we had excel test. It was actually excel 2016 and I was not able to use shortcut keys. The user interface was difficult to use. The test was confusing and challenging, but it was good. I personally believe theh could have improvised on the excel test too. We should be precise and specific with question and the interface should be set accordingly.

Pathetic Interview Process

It was a pool campus drive. There were more than 400 people. The first round was a coding round, there were two codes. 9 people out of those 400 were selected for the interview. I was one of them.
Interview was on the next day. It was one of the most pathetic experience I have ever had. The interviewer came in shorts (Shorter than shorts). While the interview was going on, he was busy with his work. He asked me 6 pretty basic codes. I wrote them all. He iterated them all with his testcases.
He left after the interview and then some peon came and informed me that I was rejected.
Btw, he himself did not know Memoization technique of Dynamic Programming.

This is something that the company needs to take care of. Really pathetic.

One of my friend was also selected for the interview, while the interview was going on, the interviewer was more interested in the Pizza which was being served outside. He asked him all the nonsense questions ranging from your PC configuration to how pro are you in Counter Strike game.
He was asked only 2 questions and then was rejected too.

I had always heard this that DirectI hires the best i.e only 2-3 people every year.
I guess one should carry a Pizza to get selected :D

Interview

2 codes to be done on code chef.
once you solve them u get a chance of interview.
Don't think that if u don't know anything you wont get through the interview.
Interviewer himself doesn't know dynamic programming and ask question on it.
Their selection is unexpected.
Trust me.

I applied through college or university. The process took a week. I interviewed at Directi (Mumbai (India)) in October 2014.

Interview

The recruitment happened in through campus. We were to be tested by and online coding exam in Codechef (Directi's coding portal).
This followed by 3 other rounds which happened in their office. All of them were Algorithm rounds. I was asked questions about string manipulation, and few sorting questions.

Interview

Such a pity, after a guy completes all 4 questions(takes 4hrs), goes to next round reject him cause he was smarter than your interviewer during in person interview. Well I knew he'd do that cause I know all ignorant cowards belong to same category
 Btw don't waste peoples time by simply calling and rejecting them. After all I deserve better that saying thanks when I took whole day to do everything so well.
And such were your interviewer's enthusiasm that he didn't even ask me to run my program once or verify it, after a guy writes the code without even eating anything,
the other in person interviewer was preaching wrongs things, when i asked him to show in eclipse he failed, asked a question like how will
I detect a client is getting slow response, i told server slowness,database server slowness, network latency, he told java script latency LOL.
I wonder how he even got selected he didn't even know if a main thread simply spawns threads from for loop they will work independently.

Do your homework well Directi is a decent brand don't spoil its name,
Ask him to prepare well next time, thanks to him, i had a great laugh after the interview

I give you (-1 out of 10) as a feedback, i'm pretty sure ignorant will prefer to stay ignorant.

BEST OF LUCK with such crippled interviewer.
Such a sham, bogus process.
