It was a scheduled drive on saturday. Some 15-20 candidates were there. First, there was an machine test comprising some MCQ questions on Java, Spring, JDBC . There were two simple programming questions out of which we have to attempt only one.
It was an elimination round.
After the written, I was asked for a F2F interview. Simple questions related to OOPs,Collections, Spring, JDBC, JVM, MultiThreading, basic programming skills were asked.
After 1 week , I was asked for the second round of interview. It was also a technical round.
It was one of the most pathetic interview experience that i ever had. Stupid theoretical questions that requires you to be great at memorizing theory were asked like what you see after eclipse opens , if you don't have java installed will eclipse open or not etc.
If you start using some other IDE after a month or so what is the need of this knowledge.
I think the interview should test the candidate more on hi coding and design skills rather than asking questions that a 10th standard kid can answer if he memorizes them.
Only questions related to REST were good but some of them were also memory based.
I was expecting more of conceptual ,coding or design based questions. I am not concerned that I am not selected for further round but the quality of interview really pissed me off.
