Cloud Software Group Software Engineer Interview Questions
& Process

We started with a technical screen on Hackerrank, which had some easy problems but one tricky one at the end. Then there was an interview with two Leetcode easy questions, a few general CS questions, and a casual chat with the engineers.

I interviewed for the Senior Cloud Software Engineer position and it was a bad experience. The hiring manager was unprofessional and rude from the start, rushing through the conversation and not really listening to me. They kept interrupting me when I tried to talk about my cloud automation, Kubernetes, and DevOps experience. It felt more like an interrogation than a discussion, and the tone was hostile. I didn't get a clear idea about the role or the team culture. The whole thing made me question the workplace culture. I'd suggest being ready for a potentially difficult interview process.

I interviewed at Citrix in Bangalore. It was a face-to-face interview with 3 rounds. The first round was coding, mostly simple array questions and some OOPS concepts. The second round was system design, where I had to design a library management system. The third round was with the manager and was a discussion about real-time problems. After these 3 rounds, they mentioned an HR round for the next day. I contacted HR after 2-3 days, and they said they would contact me soon, but I haven't heard back yet. For a face-to-face interview, it wasn't worth the time.
