PunePosted Aug 2025 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I went through a Java-focused two-round interview where both rounds centered on Java ecosystem and API/microservices topics.

Technical round 1 — I was asked basic Java questions plus project-related questions, including coding work like building something around a third-party API.
Technical round 2 — I discussed microservices and Java/Spring concepts, and we covered APIs I had worked on. Outcome: No offer for me here; the takeaway was that they expect both core Java knowledge and practical API/microservices familiarity.
