The interview consisted of three technical rounds, one Director-level round, one VP-level round, one HR round, and one online test. I did very well in all the technical rounds. During each round, the interviewers asked me whether I had come through a referral, which made me realize how important referrals can be. I told them that I had applied online. All completed after a week I called recruiter , The way he speaks almost confirm the offer and a week later recruiter updated they stop proceeding this process and he ask me how the HR interview went??

Coding Technical
In 2024, I was called for a face-to-face round from Bengaluru to Hyderabad for a Software Engineer role. Although I didn't mention Java on my resume, they still selected it. Upon reaching, they asked if I had relevant Java experience. I stated I didn't but knew other programming languages, and they declined my application. In 2025, I interviewed for a UI role. They mentioned UI was 20% and the rest was backend, inquiring about my backend experience. The interview invitation stated 'UI developer' and mentioned 3 rounds focusing on JS fundamentals, but they seemed to disregard the role specification. It felt like they didn't care about the role at all. I'd advise being aware of this when interviewing with OpenText, or you might waste your time. I won't consider OpenText even if they offer me a position.

Behavioral Technical Coding
The interview process at OpenText usually has a few steps to check your technical skills, how you solve problems, and if you fit in. It can be a bit different based on the job and where it is, but usually it goes like this: First, there's a call or video chat with a recruiter or manager to talk about your experience and why you want the job. Then, you might have a technical phone interview about your past work, school, and basic stuff in JavaScript, SQL, and OOP. Some jobs also have a take-home test, like a small project or coding problems. The last part is often an onsite interview with some team members, where you'll talk about tech stuff, do some problem-solving, and see if you'd be a good fit for the team and company culture.
