Entrevista
First Round: HR screening No particular questions, informal and just Q&A plus the basics like asking how much I was expecting salary wise Went over the interview process 2nd Round: Introduction to team (mostly behavioral) 20-25 minutes interview with 2 Fidelity Employees 3rd Round: Technical Questions 1 hour interview with 3-4 fidelity employees Yes and no Questions about my experiences and technical understanding mostly Recommend to answer with: Yes and… No but… No coding challenges 4th Round: Technical (Coding and some questions) This one took me by surprised as in the beginning it was mention it would be only one round of technical but in this round we did some coding challenges and some technical questions. Prepare to have an IDE ready to code and run the program they want you to code that was one my mistakes. Since I was given no guidance on what was to come on the interview I did not have this handy, I expected they would provide the platform and I would code there.

They usually don’t go very deep into complex algorithms. Expect fundamentals like:

Palindrome check (string or number)
Basic array/string manipulation
Sometimes simple hashing or sorting logic
2. DBMS Basics
What is a primary key / foreign key
Difference between SQL joins (INNER, LEFT, RIGHT)
Basics of normalization
Simple query writing
They usually keep it conceptual + a few practical questions.
3. OOPs Concepts
Very standard questions, such as:
Pillars of OOP: Encapsulation, Inheritance, Polymorphism, Abstraction
Real-life examples
Difference between overloading vs overriding
Why OOP is useful
They may ask you to relate this to your project.
4. Puzzle / Logical Thinking
These are not super hard—just to test reasoning:
Basic math/logical puzzles
Pattern-based questions
Situational problem solving
5. Project Discussion
Explain your project clearly:
Problem statement
Your role
Tech stack
Be ready for:
“Why did you choose this approach?”
“What challenges did you face?”
