First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Fiserv.
Intern
First, they do a resume shortlist to filter candidates. Make sure your resume is concise and impactful, highlighting projects, skills, and achievements relevant to the job. Using professional templates from places like Overleaf can help. Then, if you pass the shortlist, you'll do a group discussion with about 6-8 other candidates for around 30 minutes. A panel of three judges will lead the discussion, usually on topics like 'The impact of technology and social media on human interaction'. This tests communication, critical thinking, and teamwork. After that, there's a technical round for about 30 minutes. They'll ask about your personal projects and past internships, cover OOP and DBMS, and give you a real-life problem to solve related to a project. You might also get a brain teaser, like the water jug problem, and discuss SDLC concepts. This round is to check your technical skills, problem-solving, and logical thinking. Finally, the managerial round, also about 30 minutes. This is more personal, starting with an introduction, then discussing career goals, talking about new technologies and their market impact, diving into specific tech like UPI and Chat GPT, and asking role-specific questions to see if you're a good fit for Fiserv. They want to see if you fit the company, how you communicate, and if you know about industry trends.
- Tell us about a project from your resume and the tech you used. Also, describe a significant challenge you faced in a project or internship and how you handled it.
- Could you explain the four principles of Object-Oriented Programming with examples for each?
- What would be your approach to designing a database schema for a basic banking application?
Intern
The interview process included a group discussion, a technical interview, a managerial round, and an HR round. The first round was fairly easy, lasting about 15-30 minutes, and was themed "Goodbye Cash, Goodbye Privacy." The second round was technical, focusing on OOPs concepts and proficiency in one programming language. The third round involved situational questions. There was no further communication after the third round.
- Could you please introduce yourself?
- Can you list different software models and explain the difference between the spiral and V-model?
Intern
So, the first part was a group discussion with like 4 or 5 people. We got a tech topic and each of us shared like 2-3 points. After that, 4 people from the group went on to a technical interview which also had some HR stuff. I had to talk about myself first, then my projects and what I know. They asked more about the projects, then DSA, OOPs, and DBMS. After that, there was a manager round where they asked usual HR questions and maybe 1 or 2 easy DSA problems to code. There was also this question about how you'd connect a module in a project, and they wanted a broader view, not just from a developer's side.
- Could you tell me about some basic Data Structures and Algorithms questions?
- What are the main features of OOPs?
- Can you answer some questions about DBMS, including basics of SQL and PL/SQL if you're familiar?
