Technical Behavioral

It was for Genpact's Headstrong Banking domain. The process involved 2 technical rounds and a managerial round. The first round covered basic C++ with important topics. They were also looking for quick joiners, which is why I didn't make it to the next round. From what I've heard from others, the second round was a bit deeper into C++. If you know the basics, you can crack the interview. The manager round is psychological, asking things like 'Do you know these?' and 'Will you be able to do it?', etc.

The interview process mainly depends on the client interview. The company interview is generally easier to get through. It starts with a telephonic interview, followed by a personal interview, and then the client round, which is the most crucial part. You should prepare thoroughly in core Java and multithreading.
