You submit your resume, cover letter, and sometimes portfolio or GitHub links.
HR or a recruiter reviews your profile to match with the job requirements.
If shortlisted, you're contacted for the next round.

Aptitude questions (logical, verbal, quantitative)
Coding questions (Data Structures & Algorithms – often on platforms like HackerRank, Codility)
Technical MCQs (based on programming, DBMS, OOPs, etc.)
3. Technical Interview (1–2 rounds)
Conducted by engineers or team leads.
You may be asked:
Data structures and algorithms
Core subjects (OOP, DBMS, OS, Networking)
Project discussion (Explain your projects in detail)
Coding on a whiteboard or live coding platform
Tech stack knowledge (e.g., React, Node.js, MongoDB for MERN roles)
