I applied for the job through the Accenture careers portal and received a phone call from the recruitment team. The interview was scheduled and was average. The interviewer was cool.

Basic questions were asked on Java and Java 8 features, and a few Spring Boot questions were included.

The interview was smooth and I was selected, but later received a mail stating that the opening for this role is on hold and they would update me. Then I called HR, but she didn't pick up the call. This is a very bad gesture from a reputed organization.

Why String is immutable. Code snippet questions on String.

Exception hierarchy and one code snippet: What will be the output, which was easy.

What is a Singleton class and how to break and protect Singleton class rules, and what is double locking in Singleton.

What is the SOLID principle and a few questions on Java 8, like writing a lambda expression for the sum of two numbers.

What are intermediate and terminal operations you have used, and the advantages and disadvantages of Streams.

In Spring Boot, what is the purpose of the @SpringBootApplication annotation, and what is dependency injection, and what is @Qualifier, and what are Actuators, and what is JPA, and what are other annotations you have used.

Overall questions were direct and easy.
