Grab Holdings Limited is a Singapore-headquartered superapp company founded in 2012 in Kuala Lumpur as MyTeksi, now based at 3 Media Close in one-north, Singapore. It runs ride-hailing, food and grocery delivery, parcel delivery, advertising and financial services from a single app across eight Southeast Asian markets: Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, the Philippines, Myanmar and Cambodia. The company lists on Nasdaq under the ticker GRAB after its December 2021 SPAC merger with Altimeter Growth Corp.

Grab turned the corner financially in 2025. Revenue reached USD 3.37 billion for FY2025, up about 20 percent year on year, and the company posted net income of USD 200 million against a USD 158 million loss in 2024. In the first quarter of 2026 revenue grew 24 percent to USD 955 million with profit of USD 120 million and adjusted EBITDA of USD 154 million, and management reiterated full-year 2026 revenue guidance of USD 4.04 billion to USD 4.10 billion. Market capitalisation stood at about USD 13.7 billion in late July 2026.

Grab employs roughly 12,000 people and hires across the region through its SmartRecruiters careers portal, with the largest volume of openings in Singapore. It has run an India engineering presence since 2017, when it opened an R&D centre in Indira Nagar, Bengaluru, initially for GrabPay payments technology; Bengaluru roles today cover backend, Android, Salesforce platform and finance and people systems engineering. In March 2026 Grab agreed to buy Delivery Hero's foodpanda delivery business in Taiwan for USD 600 million, its ninth market and first outside Southeast Asia.

Grab Interview Questions & Answers

Q: What happens when someone types www.google.com?

A: Walk the full path: DNS resolution, TCP and TLS handshake, the HTTP request, server-side routing and response, then browser parsing, rendering and asset fetches. Interviewers want the layers in order, not just the answer.

Answer by AI
  • Resolution first: browser cache, OS cache, resolver, root, TLD and authoritative nameserver return an IP.
  • Connection next: TCP three-way handshake, then TLS negotiation for HTTPS, then the GET request with headers and cookies.
  • Response and render: server or CDN returns HTML, the browser builds the DOM and CSSOM, runs JavaScript and fetches sub-resources in parallel.

Q: How does the server tell apart the two requests www.google.com/maps and www.google.com/inbox?

A: Both hit the same host, so the difference is the request path in the HTTP request line. A reverse proxy or application router matches that path against rules and forwards it to the right upstream service.

Answer by AI
  • The Host header picks the virtual host; the path in the request line picks the route.
  • A router or reverse proxy maps path prefixes to upstream services or handlers.
  • The same idea powers API gateways: one domain, many backing services, split by path or header.

Q: What's the difference between git rebase and git merge?

A: Merge preserves history and adds a merge commit; rebase rewrites your commits on top of the target branch for a linear history. Rebase a shared branch and you rewrite history others depend on.

Answer by AI
  • Merge keeps both histories intact and records a merge commit showing where branches joined.
  • Rebase replays your commits onto the new base, producing new commit hashes and a straight line.
  • Rule of thumb: rebase local or unshared work, merge anything already pushed and shared.

Q: Find the intersection of two linked lists.

A: Use the two-pointer trick: walk both lists, and when a pointer hits the end switch it to the other list's head. They meet at the intersection node after at most two passes, in O(n + m) time and O(1) space.

Answer by AI
  • Naive approach: put every node of list A in a hash set, then scan B for the first hit. O(n) extra space.
  • Better: compute both lengths, advance the longer list by the difference, then step together.
  • Cleanest: swap pointers to the other head on reaching null; both travel n + m and meet at the junction.
