Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Software Developers.
Software Engineer
So basically there were 3 rounds of basic questions like list vs tuple, multithreading and multiprocessing, and oops concepts such as abstraction, polymorphism, encapsulation. Then there were 2 technical rounds where I had to do a python program, a sql base query program, and DSA. Lastly, there was a manager round where they asked me project related questions and some technical questions.
- Basic python questions on oops concepts
Senior Software Engineer
Got contacted on Linkedin, then had a first interview with someone not from the tech team. After passing that, I got an email for a tech interview with the actual tech team. The last interview was with the HR team. They sent a job offer via email, but I declined it because the salary was lower than average.

Software Developer
So, the first step is an Aptitude Test, where they check your problem-solving, analytical thinking, and basic math skills. You need to be quick and accurate here. If you pass that, you move on to the Coding Round. Here, you'll be given programming problems to solve in languages like C, C++, Java, or Python. They want to see if you can code efficiently, build logic, and write good, optimized code without bugs, all within the time limit. The third round is a Technical Interview with senior folks. They'll ask you about core CS stuff like Data Structures, Algorithms, DBMS, OS, and OOPs. They might also ask about your projects or resume, and you could be asked to code live or explain your code. This round is all about how well you know your tech stuff, how clear your concepts are, and how you communicate.
