So, the interview process started with an MCQ test, it had 40 questions total. It was split into two parts: one was aptitude - like numerical, reasoning, and english stuff - and the other part was technical MCQs on .NET, Java, and SQL. After that, if you cleared the first round, there was a pre-placement talk, and then the second round kicked off. This second round was a technical interview, basically asking about whatever was on my resume, plus an HR round. The folks who did well in the second round were then invited for a managerial interview round.

Technical Behavioral

It started with an online technical test, then there were two technical interview rounds, and finally an HR round. The technical interviews covered Java core, Spring Boot, Hibernate, and SQL. The HR part was more about communication, how adaptable you are, and teamwork. The whole thing was pretty organized, and the interviewers were nice and professional, so it was a good and easy experience overall.

After submitting my application online, I quickly got an email for a phone interview. The recruiter was nice and asked standard questions for that stage. However, I never heard back from them after the call, and my follow-up email went unanswered.
