First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Volkswagen Group.
Software Engineer
So the interview started with a quick recruiter call. Then, we moved on to a technical screen. During this screen, the interviewer asked me to solve an array problem and find the maximum element. They also asked me to describe my current project, my responsibilities in it, and the technologies I'm using.
- Given an array, how do you find the maximum element?
- Can you briefly describe your current project?
- What are your roles and responsibilities in it?
Software Engineer
Had 2 technical interviews, one purely technical and the other focused on software development approaches like agile. Then an HR round. Make sure to prep OOPPS concepts and Java 8 features. Also, practice stream questions.
- Can you tell me about the fundamental principles of OOPPS?
- Could you describe the features introduced in Java 8?
- What kind of questions can I expect related to Java streams?
Senior Software Engineer
I had a call from a consultant for the interview. The interview was scheduled for 1 hour but ended in 35 minutes. Me and the interviewer joined 5-10 minutes prior, but he rudely asked me to wait until the scheduled time to start, even when I said good morning, he didn't reply and just ignored me. There was no HR present on the call, and no recording, so I don't know if he conducted the interview properly. I answered all the questions he asked. He gave me a code snippet, and I took a few minutes but completed it. He seemed less interested in my answer, so he gave me another coding question, which I also solved. At the end, when I asked about areas for improvement, he just said he was fine with me. But later, he mentioned I needed to enhance my analytical skills as well as my code performance, even though my code complexity was O(1). I later tried to find a solution with less complexity, and even ChatGPT suggested the same answer. The interviewer seemed uninterested, going on mute after asking each question. It was the worst experience I've had with Volkswagen. Don't waste your time interviewing here. If you're not interested in conducting interviews, don't waste candidates' time. I could name the interviewer, but that would harm his career. However, I request the company, if they are unaware, to monitor their interviewers as well.
- Can you explain how Node.js achieves concurrency through asynchronous operations?
- What is the output sequence for the following JavaScript code: console.log("1"); setTimeout(()=>{ console.log("2") },0) console.log("3")?
- How would you find the number of occurrences for each element in an array containing duplicate values?
