Microsoft One test 2019

Yup, I think this is the case, cause I took enough time so that I can reduce even my O(NlogN) to O(N) in each solution where I got succeded a bit, thinking that the judging criteria would be on the basis of neatness of code and time complexity. I didn’t had an Idea that time would be considered as well.

Same here.
I thought I have time then why not use it and make my code better.

My observation :- The higher your rating, the lesser the chances of good companies selecting us :frowning:

They even don’t mind with brute force solutions and good coders waste time in optimizing it.

Its not due to time taken that a lot of people who did all 3 questions are not selected. My reference told me they maintain a list of colleges from which they would hire even in off-campus drives. One of my friend got selected even after taking more time than me because he is at Bits Pilani.

For some reason, I did indeed have a Reply box open for this thread - must have spasmed and accidentally clicked on a Reply button :slight_smile:

Then idk why do they invite us for test :man_shrugging:
Just add list of colleges in eligibility criteria. Why to waste time of people.
Camus pe bhi na aao, off campus me bhi… huh

And the irony :- They wrote at multiple places that no one will be discriminated on basis of college , gender,etc.
during the selection process.
They even mentioned that previous criminal record is okay if you have served your term.
BIGGEST LOL

That’s the reason why I’m reducing it to lower 5 star

I have observed that only 2-3(stars)/unrated star guys get internship at good places. Pure observation, something is odd.

Had he given test on 29th? Or 22nd? I think those you gave test on 29th are scheduled first for interview…

5-6 days ago… She is the only one in NIT RAIPUR… I also solved fully 3 problems but didn’t recieve mail.

I once got rejected because i wrote the most optimal code in written round , while others got selected by writing the brute force code . From then I always write brute force code in interviews and optimize it when asked to do so :rofl::rofl::rofl:
