Campus placements 2020 .There were two rounds of interview , one was technical and other was HR. Technical Round was super easy if you know your basics properly so i suggest you to be strong at basics and they asked questions on my project and Networking questions . Dont get tensed because they will be testing you only on basics.
The first round was an online MCQ + coding round where they ask questions from c, networks, OS and basic data structures. The coding question was a little tricky and had to use graphs to solve it.
