      Lead Engineer Interview

      15 May 2021
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Bengaluru
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Freshworks (Bengaluru) in May 2021

      Interview

      The interviewer seemed very biased and disinterested in the conversation. This was one of the worst experience i had. I normally don't give feedback for the interviews but this time i am giving as i feel the interviewer was behaving bit bossy also the question were little orthodox like reverse integer then float and then next palindrome number. I feel this is not the way one should be judging a candidate having 8+ years of experience. I told all the answers and also wrote the code but still negative feedback from your side that makes me think that the interviewer was not interviewing to take candidate.

      Interview questions [4]

      Question 1

      given a integer number reverse the same. example: input - 123 output -321
      Answer question

      Question 2

      given a float number reverse the same. ex: 2453.67 o/p -> 3542.76
      Answer question

      Question 3

      find Next palindrome Number for a given number i.e input 11 output 22
      Answer question

      Question 4

      I told that my current organisation has 6 days since past 5 months so i am looking out, He asked if FreshWork also has 6days/week working then would you join?
