Accounts come from 2021 to 2025 and differ in the number of coding rounds. Senior roles put more weight on design.
- 1
HackerRank coding test
Unverified +1Online testRemoteThree coding problems, reported at 75 to 90 minutes, ranging from easy to hard.
DSA - 2
Problem solving rounds
Unverified +1Live codingOne or more rounds of algorithm problems, where the interviewer pushes from a brute force answer to the optimal one. One candidate had to compile code against test cases.
- 3
Design discussion
Unverified +1System designObject oriented design of a system such as a booking service, or a high level design question, depending on level.
- 4
Hiring manager round

What comes up
Recurring themes from candidate accounts, not a question bank. Nobody is served by leaked question lists, least of all you in the interview.
Optimising algorithms step by step
Unverified +1Accounts stress follow ups that ask for a faster solution each time, using heaps, graphs and dynamic programming.
Low and high level design
Unverified +1Writing out classes and entities for a real product, or designing a collaborative system end to end.

A practical course on negotiating compensation in tech, from preparing and building a strategy to specific tactics, the full package beyond base salary, handling multiple offers and asking for a raise. It has tailored sections for fresh graduates and experienced engineers. It suits anyone with an offer coming, and anyone who has ever accepted the first number out of discomfort.

- Job search
A learning path that bundles five courses into one sequence for system design preparation: System Design Fundamentals, Grokking the System Design Interview, Advanced System Design Interview Volume II, Grokking Microservices Design Patterns and Grokking Design Patterns for Engineers and Managers. Together they add up to 76 chapters and 666 lessons. It suits engineers who want a complete, ordered curriculum instead of assembling one from scattered posts.

The quick-revision companion to the University to job-ready roadmap: OOP, Git and engineering practice, data structures, DBMS, operating systems and networks, then projects, choosing a direction, getting experience and the hiring process. It has editions for first or second year, third year, and final year. Revise a chapter a week alongside your courses and before assessments.

- CS fundamentals
- DSA
A very large site of articles on data structures, algorithms and core CS subjects such as operating systems, DBMS, computer networks and OOP, usually with code in several languages, plus practice problems and paid courses. It is handy for revising a university topic or finding a worked example of a specific algorithm. Quality varies because much is community written, so cross-check anything surprising against a textbook or official documentation.

What it pays
Nothing collected for this company yet, and nothing worth guessing at. A made-up range is worse than no range because people negotiate against it.
Universities they recruit from
No sourced university links yet. A campus drive, a career fair appearance or an internship partnership is what puts a university here.
How to actually get seen
Apply directly or through Swiggy’s own recruiters; one candidate reports losing track of the process after going through a third party agency.

Interviewed at Swiggy? Fill in what changed.
Processes change, rounds get added, tests get replaced. If what you went through was different from what is on this page, tell me and I will update it.
Want me to refer you here?
Send me the role, your CV and a few honest paragraphs on why you fit it. Where I know someone inside and your profile matches, I will make the introduction. Where I cannot, I will tell you why and point you at the route that does work. You get an answer either way.
Stuck on something specific?
Writing only gets you so far. If you want an answer to your situation rather than the general case, book a session and we will work through it together. Sessions are free for approved Sefism members, and a few slots open each week.
