I applied through a recruiter. They shortlisted me, and then I had an on-call video interview that was around two hours long. The interviewer asked many questions about my project and framework.

HR calls you promptly to schedule interviews, but no feedback is provided later. They leave you hanging with no proper response. My request to all HR is that if you can't call the interviewee, then at least drop an email like not selected, rejected, or you are on hold. A one-word subject line email will be sufficient rather than ignoring the person altogether. If the person is willing to learn and has experience doing things, there is no point in grilling a person for hours to showcase how you are better than the interviewee. At the end, the same mundane work will be done by your employees as well.

There were some 20 questions. I can't post them all. They were all related to the tools and programming language that I had mentioned, such as:

• Tell me about yourself.
• Tell me about your project framework implementations.
• TestNG annotations-related questions.
• Simple Java code output which were tricky, and OOPs concepts.
• Selenium page load, wait, AJAX code handling, and dynamic data table handling.
• Regression vs. retest differences.
• Test plan.
• Maven and Jackson Databind dependencies.
• API testing about body() and header() methods.
