It was a video call interview on Google Meet that lasted about an hour. The interviewer joined and immediately asked me to explain my day-to-day duties, without introducing himself or letting me introduce myself. At the end, he asked how I would rate him as an interviewer and the interview itself on a scale of 1 to 5. I got the impression he didn't have much experience conducting interviews.

Coding

I went through the interview process for this role and passed the first technical round. The initial round focused on Java programming, and I felt confident in my ability to provide solutions and logic for the questions asked. However, the second round consisted solely of LeetCode medium-level Java programming questions, with no discussion of my experience or automation testing skills. I was ultimately not selected after the second round, which was disappointing given the lack of testing on relevant skills for the position.

Coding Technical Behavioral

The interview experience was better than expected. The interviewer was on time and pleasant. However, there was a mismatch between the job description provided by the recruiter and the actual interview content. The JD didn't mention coding, but it was a significant part of the interview. The company seems to be improving its interview process. It's noted that using coding tools like copilot/Gemini is common now, so evaluating coding on a basic editor might not be the most effective.

Confirmed questions4 questions
  • Could you solve a coding problem involving Data Structures and Algorithms, similar to LeetCode medium difficulty?
  • How would you manually test a specific scenario or flow on an online e-commerce website?
  • How would you approach automation testing for a website with ancestor-child element relationships?
