C++ Software Developer Interview Experience - Bengaluru, India
Process
I applied online.
First round was an online test with 50 questions in 60 minutes. Questions included some reasoning, finding program output, data structures, and operating systems.
Second round was a phone call. It was just a screening round about the project and work. The interviewer asked me if I had worked on any project from scratch. My answer was no. After this, I didn't get any call for the next round.
I tried to connect with HR, but every time got the same answer that he didn't get the feedback yet.
Advice to Team: If you want to shortlist a candidate on the basis of a screening round, then you should take this screening round before the online test. After clearing the online test, I was expecting an F2F round.
If I never worked on any project from scratch, it doesn't mean that I will not be able to do it. Please do not judge a book by its cover. At least you should give candidates a chance to prove themselves.

Applied Materials Work Experiences
- 3.0Not good for freshers if you are hired for groups other than CSSSoftware Engineer • Current EmployeeBengaluru, Karnataka, IndiaNovember 5, 2014Pros: Good company benefits. Attractive salary for CSS group people. Flexible work style. Good culture.Cons: If you are hired for the AGS B300 group, then it will be the worst in your career life. You should nod your head to whatever the Manager says, even though it's stupid. There's no proper planning, and they'll fire you like a rocket one day before the deadline. You won't feel that you are in a team. If you ask the Manager for any help regarding the product, he himself doesn't know it completely.
