Colombo, WesternPosted Oct 2025 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I interviewed for the Software Engineer role with a Java/Spring-focused process (virtual) that moved quickly through tech, then HR and background verification.

Recruiter/HR screen (implied by process flow) — a resume-based discussion and role fit check in a virtual format.
Technical interview 1 — Java and Spring Boot questions, including core Java concepts like threads and data structures; Spring Boot and related microservices themes came up.
Technical interview 2 (virtual panel-style) — Java coding exercises and Spring Boot annotations; additional questions were asked to validate understanding.
Background verification / HR — verification completed after tech rounds. Outcome: No offer; the takeaway is that strong
