Colloquio
Initial interview with project manager. Then about a week later had four half-hour technical interviews. These were with the actual team members. Then another interview with the same manager and her boss. So, the second round of interviews took about two and a half hours.
The first two technical interview panels were good and I enjoyed answering the questions, including the questions from their principal software engineer. The second two interview panels had interviewers with poor quality English speakers. I had to keep asking them to repeat the questions. This company is using old tech (including WCF) and is desperately trying to move to the cloud (Azure) and is seeking someone with Azure Devops skills, even though it was described as optional. I design and develop software and I am not interested in becoming someone that only deploys software, I kept saying that but they did not understand. I think they don't understand the difference between someone that designs and developers software versus someone that design their build and deployment environment!

I was interviewed by 2 Enterprise Architects but the job was not something I got from HR. I was not prepared at all, but due to my 20 years practical experience, there is no problem for me.

This was a very funny interview. The interview questions were very simple but still the interviewer was looking for answers in certain fashion. And after getting to know about the break from work I took and the "deligency" in taking that break, he took it a little personal I think. Anyways it was going to be a practice interview so I am not bothered but it could have been interesting but it was not. I had some trouble sharing my ide's screen but that got sorted out. Man what a dissapointing interview. I won't even call it a practice interview anymore.
Tip: Don't share personal stuff with anyone.

The interview consisted of three technical rounds, one Director-level round, one VP-level round, one HR round, and one online test.
I did very well in all the technical rounds.
During each round, the interviewers asked me whether I had come through a referral, which made me realize how important referrals can be.
I told them that I had applied online.

The first technical round focused entirely on system design, along with one problem related to HashMap.The second technical round was centered around Spring and core Java concepts.The third round involved a few coding practice questions and one problem to solve.The Director-level round was completely behavioral. In director round asked about my expected salary.The VP-level round was a mix of technical and behavioral questions.All the rounds went well. The HR round was a bit unusual. The HR seemed partially sleepy during the conversation—she yawned in between questions, then suddenly woke up and asked for clarity on my answers. She asked about AI-related I realised she doen't have any understanding about AI. The online question was one medium and other above medium level.All completed after a week I called recruiter , The way he speaks almost confirm the offer and a week later recruiter updated they stop proceeding this process and he ask me how the HR interview went??
