Process

I applied online. The process took 3 weeks.

  • Technical Interview: The interview was purely technical, and he asked in-depth technical questions and scenario-based questions. Since I knew the answer to most of the questions, it was easy for me. The first interviewer was so humble, and he also answered the questions which I wasn't able to.
  • Technical Round: There was a deep-dive into Docker, Linux, and Kubernetes. I was able to clear this round with ease.
  • Managerial Round: It was a horrible experience. The interviewer was so rude and had negative behavior, such that he could make any person's mood bad instantly. He was a pessimist. For any of my answers, he was saying this is scripted. I mean, what the hell. He said even greetings and my introduction is scripted. I have given many interviews in my life, and I introduce myself in very detail by putting some good vocabulary. It seems like the interviewer was not familiar with vocabulary. Of course, in the middle, he was putting up the words in Hindi like "ki", "aise", "accha", etc. The whole point of the third round was the managerial round or HR round. But he didn't ask a single question on that. The interviewer just went pure technical, and I still gave the answer to most of the questions. And at last, he says there are no interpersonal skills in me. Bro, WTH, who decides interpersonal skills with a technical round? He didn't even ask one single question about the managerial round and says no interpersonal, lol.

At last, the interviewer asked, "Any questions for me?"

I said, "Yes, sir, what are the typical career progressions at your company?"

He answered in a negative tone, "Career, huh? First of all, don't think about the future. Think about your present job," and he was laughing. He told me to go find the right work. Seriously speaking, I was really demotivated after hearing this. Literally, there were tears in my eyes.

I asked, "Can you tell me about your work culture? How is it? I wanna know. I really wanna hear it from him."

Interviewer: "Huh?" He was laughing and said this is also scripted. He didn't answer this question.

I asked about the team strength that I would be a part of.

The interviewer answered nicely.

Finally, he told me that my answers sound scripted and not satisfactory. Let me tell you, in a technical interview, all the answers would be the same. There were no managerial questions asked, so how can you say that it is scripted? It doesn't make any sense. Technical answers and scripted? Wow, somebody give him a medal. He was a horrible and negative-minded DevOps manager.

Questions

Basic questions were asked related to AWS, K8s, Linux, and Docker.
