Interview Experience at Velocity Software Solutions
I recently attended an interview at Velocity Software Solutions, which consisted of multiple rounds: a Write-up Round, an Aptitude Round, and a Coding Round.
1. Write-up Round (15 minutes)
Conducted offline.
Candidates were given a topic and asked to write around 300–400 words.
My topic was: “What factors contribute to the growth of e-commerce in India?”
2. Aptitude Round (60 minutes)
Consisted of quantitative aptitude questions.
Included tricky output-based coding questions and a few SQL questions.
The format involved two components:
A question paper containing the problems.
A separate OMR sheet where we had to fill the correct option (from 4 choices) for each question.
The round included:
20 quantitative aptitude questions
20 output-based coding/SQL MCQs
I successfully cleared both the write-up and aptitude rounds.
3. Coding Round (Offline)
Conducted on a laptop using offline IDEs (no online compilers allowed).
Candidates were given a question paper containing 4 problems.
The problems tested problem-solving, coding logic, and pattern recognition skills:
Similar to the Maximum Product Subarray problem — find two subarrays with the same product in an array like [1, 2, 3, 6].
A variation of the 2 Sum problem — find a pair whose sum is closest to a target.
Find occurrences of elements in an array, with some variation.
Pattern-based question, related to prime numbers or factor series, which I could not fully solve.
Additional Details:
Before the coding round, the company informed us about a 2-year bond, which was also mentioned in the university email.
Package offered: ₹5,00,000 – ₹6,00,000 per annum.
Role included a training period of ~6 months.
Outcome:
I was not able to clear the coding round and was not selected.
Overall, it was a great learning experience, helping me understand the importance of problem-solving under time constraints and handling tricky output-based coding questions.
