01 · Overview

Interviewing at Mphasis

Mphasis interviews typically combine HR screening with multiple technical stages, followed by behavioral and HR conversations. From reported steps, you should expect technical panels and operational managers in at least some cases, plus panels that go deeper into your coding and problem-solving approach.

The technical core is heavily centered on Java and data skills. The extracted topic data shows very high prominence for Java (Programming) and Java (programming_language), SQL, Git, AWS Services, PySpark, DAX, Power BI, Selenium, ETL Testing (Data Warehouse), and also Scrum and Business Analysis fundamentals alongside Communication Skills and soft-skill evaluation.

What actually happens to candidates is not just about difficulty. Candidate reports show that processes can feel smooth in some cases, but others include scheduling churn and slow or delayed feedback, and the aggregated offer rate across reports is very low, 0.2%.

Good to know

Your loop is likely to test both breadth and specific data tooling, the topic list is dominated by Java, SQL, cloud and BI tooling (AWS, Power BI, DAX), and data engineering and testing concepts (PySpark, ETL testing), so you should prepare for both coding and end-to-end data work.

4 rounds · based on 472 candidate reports
  1. 1
    HR Screening

    You get an initial screening focused on resume review, past experience, and basic eligibility or fit for the role. Reported HR screening roles also include qualifying your communication and career readiness at a high level.

  2. 2
    Online Assessment and/or Technical Assessments

    You may start with an automated online assessment that includes logical reasoning, quantitative aptitude, basic programming, and for campus hires a speech and voice test (SVAR). In other cases, you go into an in-depth technical assessment that evaluates technical proficiency and problem-solving, including areas like data visualization tools or project management knowledge.

  3. 3
    Technical Interviews (including panels)

    You go through one or more technical rounds, sometimes described as technical panels with operational managers and key stakeholders. Interviewers drill into core engineering and data concepts, with emphasis in the topic list on Java and SQL, plus data engineering and BI themes like AWS, PySpark, Power BI, DAX, and also testing like ETL Testing and Selenium.

    Behavioral, Delivery, and HR Rounds

    You finish with behavioral interviews and HR conversations that focus on interpersonal skills, cultural fit, teamwork, and communication. Some loops include a delivery manager style round assessing leadership and delivery management with a senior manager, and some roles include client-led technical alignment in specific enterprise accounts.

07 · Insider tips

What separates offers from rejections

Patterns from candidates who got offers, and the mistakes that most often sink a loop.

Do this

  • Prepare for Java and SQL handoffs in the same loop. Practice explaining your approach clearly, not just giving an answer, because the process also targets how you think and work through problems.
  • Be ready to discuss data tooling concepts, especially Power BI and DAX, plus at least fundamentals around PySpark and AWS. Even if your role is backend or engineering, the topic prominence suggests these are common targets.
  • Go into behavioral and communication rounds with examples that map to fundamentals like teamwork and delivery style. Communication Skills and Scrum fundamentals are both highly prominent in the extracted interview topics.
  • If your process drags or feedback is delayed, keep following up, as reports describe long waits for panel input or results. Build time for admin steps like document verification and HR coordination when applicable.

Avoid this

  • Do not assume every loop is only coding. The topic mix includes BI and testing (Power BI, DAX, ETL Testing, Selenium), and the process includes behavioral and HR stages across roles.
  • Do not underestimate the importance of explaining your reasoning. Multiple reports describe an emphasis on how you approach problems and communicate, even when the technical difficulty is manageable.
  • Do not ignore scheduling and turnaround risk. Reports mention cancelled or delayed sessions and multi-week feedback delays, which can make the experience feel messy even when interviews go well.
  • Do not rely on being assessed as only one technical specialty. The extracted topics span languages and tools, so being narrowly prepared for just one area (for example only Java or only data) is a common way to get caught.
