Software Engineer Interview Experience - Bengaluru, India

August 1, 2014
Negative ExperienceGot Offer

Process

I attended 9 rounds of interviews.

1st round: Written technical MCQ questions. 2nd to 8th rounds: All technical, except for 2 managerial rounds. 9th round: A telephonic round. The call came from Hong Kong.

This was a very lengthy process. Completing the full process took more than 60 days.

Suggestion: If you have an offer letter, tell them beforehand. Once they roll off your offer letter, you cannot bargain with them. The HRs will talk very nicely, but the moment you tell them you cannot join GS, you will see the change in their behavior.

Questions

Couldn't remember the questions, but all questions were mostly from Core Java and SQL. Not a single question on Spring, Hibernate, or Struts.

Core Java:

  • Basics
  • Threads
  • Collections
