PunePosted Feb 2016 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I took two days of leave from work and showed up for a screening-and-test style process.

The first round was a normal screening with very basics of overall Java and database concepts.

For the second round, the interview felt unexpectedly disorganized. The technical test only had two questions, and while the interviewer was starting it, a colleague came by and asked her for lunch. Without asking for anything further, she left mid-flow.

That made the whole second round drag into frustration, mostly because it wasted the time I’d spent taking leave. I didn’t get an offer, and what stayed with me was how quickly the process lost momentum once the interviewer stepped away.
