So, the interview had three rounds in total. It started with an online assessment, then went into two technical rounds. The second round involved discussing my resume, core Java, Spring Boot concepts, and solving a programming question that required the best time complexity. The third round focused more on my past work experience and included some more programming questions.

Technical Behavioral

So I interviewed for a Senior QA role at [Company Name] and honestly, the whole thing was a mess. Took me 1.5 hours to get there, then another 2 hours waiting before they even started the interview. The interview itself was pretty standard and lasted over an hour. I thought I did okay and was expecting to go straight into the next round that same day. But nope, after it was done, HR just told me they'd let me know later and I could go home. Maybe they found someone, who knows, but it was super weird not to get any update at all. I emailed them, still nothing. Super unprofessional, everyone deserves to know if they got the job or not. It's funny, they called me like every day before, but after, radio silence, not even an automated rejection. My advice? If it's an in-person thing, make sure you clear the first rounds virtually first so you don't waste all that travel time. I wouldn't recommend this.

Confirmed questions2 questions
  • Questions about fundamental manual testing concepts were asked.
  • Questions concerning basic automation testing principles were posed.

The HR called me a week before the interview and asked me to come on Monday, but she didn't send any confirmation email. Despite this, I traveled from Coimbatore to Bangalore. On the interview day, I was waiting outside the company and asked them to let me in, but the security said my name wasn't on the list. I called the HR, and she made me wait for about half an hour before finally letting me in. In my lifetime, this was the best interview I have ever had; I answered almost every question. After the interview, they made me wait outside, and then the security came and asked me to leave. It would have been more responsible if the HR had personally informed me. This was a very bad way to treat interview candidates. Later, they emailed to inform me that I wasn't selected. I can assure you I did my very best and solved every problem presented to me. While people should accept failure and move on, which I am fine with, I believe interview candidates deserve to be treated with respect and responsibility.

Technical Coding

So first there was this online assessment with some simple basic aptitude questions, like verbal and logical. Then we had an SQL assessment, where we had to write queries about joins, inner joins, subqueries, unions, and that sort of thing. After that, the technical round, which was online for about 25 minutes. They also asked some basic 'this or that' type questions to see how I'd handle certain situations.

Confirmed questions4 questions
  • SQL questions about union, joins, subqueries, etc.
