KPIT Interview Experience: My Journey to Success Hello everyone, I’m excited to share my journey through the KPIT interview process, which included distinct phases. I'll walk you through each step, hoping to provide useful insights for those preparing for similar opportunities. Application I applied through the Superset platform as an on-campus opportunity. Almost all students were eligible for the initial round, with some exceptions based on percentage criteria or other requirements. There were 500 students appearing for the exam.

Round 1 Assessment The assessment consisted of four sections: 1. Core Concepts This section included 30 questions on topics like OS, CN, Embedded Systems, DBMS, and DSA. The difficulty level ranged from medium to hard, and we had 30 minutes to complete it.

Note: There was no time limit per question. 2. Essay Writing The topic given was "Importance of Education," and we were required to write at least 180 words within 25 minutes.

Note : Typing accurately and pressing backspace multiple times may impact your evaluation. 3.

Coding Round This section included two coding questions: one easy and one medium, both focused on arrays. Only C and C++ were allowed as languages. Important: After selecting a language and writing code, switching languages erased the existing code. 4. Gamified Round This round consisted of three mini-games: - Motion Challenge (6 min) - Gap Challenge(6 min) - Graph-Based Game (6 min) (a new type for me) All four sections had to be completed to be considered for the

next round. Moderate performance across sections was sufficient to progress.

Round 2 AI-Based Interview Out of all the candidates, 128 were selected for the AI-based interview held the same day at 6:00 pm. This was KPIT's first AI-based interview, where no human interviewer was present. Instead, questions appeared on the screen, and we had to record answers within 1.5 minutes. There were 12 questions, a mix of technical and HR-based ones. Examples included: - What is lvalue and rvalue in C++? - How do you create a new process in Linux? - How can you kill a process in Linux? - Self-introduction -

Coding question: Find the minimum element from a given array - Explain your code from the previous question - Can multiple inheritance be implemented in Java? - Describe your experience working in a group Results After 20 days, the final results were announced, with 48 students selected.
