EPAM Systems QA Automation Engineer interview experience

In the technical discussion, they asked Playwright-related questions and pushed hard on how to implement browser interactions correctly. I explained my approach using straightforward navigation and element selection, and then I handled a scenario involving multiple windows or tabs.

As I answered, it felt like the evaluation wasn’t just whether the idea was reasonable—it was whether my exact implementation matched what they expected. When I used a pattern that didn’t line up with their reference, the interviewer rejected it as not matching and kept steering toward a more event-driven approach
