I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Fidelity Investments (Nāgpur, Maharashtra)
Interview
3 rounds.
1.aptitude 2. technical 3.hr
aptitude test includes verbal,quant. they are of medium level (not very easy).
but they shortlisted many candidates I think cutoff was pretty low.
Technical round was easy for few depending on the interviewer. A big panel of around 12 members came. after technical round they shortlisted few around 15. Hr was just a formality.
HR was the first round
Followed by HM
HR asked for availability and resume then just disappeared
Even after following up, no response
Then next week for the same role, same message she sent to a friend of mine
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked for availability and then totally ghosted me
1. DSA Round (Easy Level)
They usually don’t go very deep into complex algorithms. Expect fundamentals like:
Anagram check (e.g., compare two strings efficiently)
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?”
“How would you improve it?”
