Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Softeon.
Software Engineer
There were 4 rounds in total. The first round was an aptitude test. The second round was a technical interview that lasted about 1 hour and 15 minutes. The third round was a telephonic interview with the Team Lead. The fourth round was an HR discussion which took about 30 minutes. The HR person had a technical background, so she asked some technical questions as well.
- Questions about Core Java
- Questions about Servlets
- Questions about JSP
Software Developer
The interview process started with a written test comprising an aptitude section, checking problem-solving, analytical, and math skills (quantitative, logical, and verbal reasoning). Then there was a technical test focusing on programming, data structures, algorithms, and relevant concepts, possibly including coding problems and tech-specific questions. After that, there were multiple face-to-face rounds. These included technical interviews by engineers or leads, with questions on coding, data structures, algorithms, and past projects to gauge technical skills. For more senior roles, a system design interview might be included, where you'd design complex systems and discuss architecture.
