Blinkit Interview Experience For SDE1

Hey everyone, so I recently reached out to the employees of Blinkit regarding consideration for the SDE1 position as they only hire through referrals.

The HR got back to me and said they have 3 rounds as part of the hiring process, each being eliminatory.

1. 1st round is PS/DS.
2. 2nd round is System Design.
3. 3rd round is a Cultural Fit Call.

• Write the code of postorder traversal without using recursion.
• Leetcode problem – https://leetcode.com/problems/best-team-with-no-conflicts/

• Design Whatsapp and follow-up questions.
• Write a SQL query to find the nth maximum salary.
• Difference between mutex and semaphore.

Unfortunately, I wasn’t adequately prepared for the system design round, which led to my elimination. However, I would recommend thoroughly studying the relevant subjects for this round. Best of luck to those preparing for it!
