I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at EY (Bengaluru) in Dec 2011
Interview
There were a total of 6 rounds of Interviews for me -
1. Written test for testing English Communication skills(even for Software engineer position :) ) - It had objective questions with multiple answer options covering - Synonyms, Antonyms, Nearest in meaning of a phrase etc. Then there was a long essay type of question. You are given any topic from - politics/economy/finance etc and you need to write your views on that topic.
2. Technical written Test - Multiple answer options questions on the technical subject. I had it for core Java. Neither too simple nor too difficult. Questions that covered almost all topics of Core Java.
3. HR round - Basically questions were related to the package, working hours etc..
4. Technical Interview - Tricky. Taken by a Tech Lead. I was asked to write some code snippet on the board. I think it is to test whether you have really done some serious coding yourself or not. Many questions on the syntax of a declaration, Collections etc..
5. Managerial Interview - Technical but not as technical as the 3rd round. General concepts of Java, OOPs, coding, debugging, testing etc... basically I think about all the phases of a project.
6. Interview/meeting with the Director - very short. General questions about past employer, reason for change, flexibility in terms of work in the new organization etc..
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The question was related to Collections - linked list usage, HashMap/HashSet usage and difference.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at EY (Bengaluru) in Jul 2012
