Process
Technical interview after aptitude.
Java technical questions were quite basic.
There were just two rounds, but they were quite competitive. The interviewer did try to confuse me on Java basics, and then on Hibernate and some basic MySQL questions.
I was asked about my projects and internship experience.
Questions
Java technical questions, quite basic.
