I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at BlueHorse Software (Midnapore)
Interview
I joined as a fresher. They aked basic to basic questions on coding, database etc etc. Practically they wanted to see if I can get the job done or not.
I interviewed at BlueHorse Software (Paschim Medinipur) in Dec 2023
Interview
The interview process was smooth and well-organized. I applied through the company website, and after a few days, the HR team reached out to schedule an interview.
The first round was conducted by the Team Lead. Initially, HR provided me with an algorithm-based question, which was fairly easy to solve. This was followed by a verbal interview where I was asked JavaScript-related questions, including topics like closures and scope at a mid-level difficulty. Additionally, there were questions on React.js, Next.js, and MongoDB, ranging from easy to mid-level.
The interviewer was very friendly and polite, which made the experience comfortable. After the interview, I followed up with HR, and the next day, I received an offer for the position!
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at BlueHorse Software (Purba Medinipur) in Dec 2023
Interview
I applied for the position of Junior Web Designer on December 6, 2023. Approximately two weeks later, I was contacted by the HR department informing me that I had been shortlisted for an interview. However, the role I was selected for was that of a Frontend Developer.
The interview was conducted offline at the company’s head office in Purba Medinipur. The process comprised three rounds:
Aptitude Test: The first round was an aptitude test designed to assess my problem-solving skills and logical reasoning abilities.
Coding Round: The second round was a coding test where I was asked to solve problems related to the role I had applied for.
Technical Round: The final round was a face-to-face technical interview with a Senior Software Engineer. This round was particularly interesting and engaging. The interviewer was very supportive and asked me a series of questions covering various domains including React, NextJs, and NodeJs. The questions ranged from basic HTML to more complex topics in React and NodeJS. Additionally, I was asked about my previous internship experience, personal projects, and other topics such as JWT, MongoDB, and Docker. It’s worth noting that whenever I found myself stuck, the interviewer was kind enough to help me figure out the solution using pen and paper. This round lasted for approximately 30 minutes.
After the interview, the HR department informed me that they would be in touch with feedback. On December 28, I received feedback on my interview. I was offered a position as a Trainee, albeit with a lower-than-expected stipend. Despite the low stipend, the overall experience was positive and the interview process was a valuable learning experience.
