The first part was an assessment, supposed to be 2 hours, but it had 6 sections. 4 of them were MCQ on various topics, some of which weren't even Java related, which was weird. Then there was a medium level SQL coding question and a medium level Java coding question. Overall, the time was really tight for the test. After the coding assessment, there were two more technical rounds.

The interview had 3 rounds. The first was a test with aptitude questions, MCQs, and 2-3 small coding problems. The second round was a technical interview about Java 8 features, how HashMap or HashSet work, Microservices, etc. This round was great, the interviewer was patient and attentive, extending the time to fully discuss concepts. The third round was a really bad experience. The interviewer, with over 16 years of experience, seemed rushed and uninterested. If I took more than a few seconds to think, he'd move on. I answered about 65% correctly, but the lack of thinking time due to the interviewer's hurry was a major issue. It felt like he expected instant, one-word answers. The interview started well but ended poorly. Companies need to realize that 30 minutes isn't enough to assess the skills of experienced employees.

The whole interview process had 4 rounds. Round 1 was an online IQ Test with 50 questions to be answered in 12 minutes. Generally, attempting more than 38 questions increases your chances of clearing it. Round 2 was a Coding Test where you had to complete 3 questions within 90 minutes. The questions were: find total substrings of a given string, sort an array from nth position, and sort dates in a given format. Round 3 was a Technical Interview focusing on Java 8 features, multiple inheritance in Java, ThreadLocal, JUnits, design patterns, handling different REST service formats (XML, JSON), creating custom immutable classes, and the difference between get and load methods. Round 4 was an Architect Interview covering the implementation steps of Spring DI, the advantage of version ID in serialization, creating a program for printing from 3 threads, the best way to implement Singleton, and the internal workings of HashMap.
