      Technical Lead Interview

      14 Oct 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Mumbai
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at BNP Paribas (Mumbai)

      Interview

      I applied through a consulting agency. The interview was scheduled after 3weeks of delay. The first round was telephonic interview. I cleared it of which I was informed immediately. The next step was a F2F discussion on a weekday. The following events took place during my visit: I was asked to complete an MCQ test which consisted of Java, Jdbc, Sql, Javascript, Hibernate, Spring questions, about 30 of them to be precise. Next round was a F2F technical discussion which lasted for 45 mins to an hour. Next was a coding test. I was a given a problem statement and asked to first get the design approved only after that will we move to actual coding on eclipse. The design was approved after some brainstorming. I moved on to coding in eclipse for which I was given only 1 hour to complete. The test class to run will be created by the evaluator and not me. I was eliminated in this round. A bit unfair since I had no opportunity to test what I had written and the time allotted was less and the problem statement was too big to be solved in 1 hour time. Please note each round is an elimination round.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 7 weeks. I interviewed at BNP Paribas (Chennai) in May 2021

      Interview

      I was reached out by their hiring team, initial round was hands on MCQ + Coding on Hackerrank which was of medium difficulty. After clearing that, another technical vc was scheduled with another tech lead, manager and a program manager which went on for about an hour. Nice people, good interaction, they even explained about the future work for why they are hiring. Overall a good discussion. Reason for negative experience is there was no feedback after that, reached out to HR couple of times, they were quick to respond that we re waiting for business team approval and will get back shortly but that never happened. It's been more than a month now, we interviewee's are okay with not being selected but HR team should be open to convey the same and not give some lame excuse to avoid giving feedback/reject.. feedback's are a critical part of interview process hope they understand..
