Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

There are a total of 2 rounds. In the first round, they mainly focused on problem-solving skills. The second round was specific to system design, Spring, and project-based questions.

Questions

In the first round, the question was based on LinkedList implementation. We needed to add and delete methods, which should work similar to Java's add and remove methods.

Remove duplicates from the linked list.

Second round: Managerial round. Questions included explaining the MVC pattern, how to handle a huge amount of data, and microservice-based questions.

I think the interviewer was not in a mood to take the interview. He completed it in 15 minutes, asking questions one by one without listening to my answers.
