I met a representative from Fidelity Investments at our career fair. I submitted my resume and received an email to schedule a first-round telephonic interview within a week. My first round was a general HR call with questions like, "Tell me about yourself" and "Favorite courses," etc. There were a couple of questions on Java, such as "What is final, static method?" and "What is a class and object?" during the same call.

Then I had three rounds of onsite interviews.

Round 1: Technical Questions included: "Is class an object or is object a class?" "Explain about joins by taking any four tables as an example." "Explain inheritance." "Explain garbage collection in Java." "What are inline functions in C++?" I told him that I had no idea about C++. He basically had a set of questions and said he didn't have any more questions on Java. So, I asked general questions.

Round 2: Behavioral It was completely about my resume. He asked questions only about my summer internship.

Round 3: Behavioral "Why Fidelity Investments?" "Tell me a challenge you faced during your masters and how you overcame it." This round was for 15 minutes only.

All questions were very basic.
