I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Luxoft (Sofia, Sofia (city))
Interview
Several interviews were held. First an HR approached me in LinkedIn - I sent a CV and received a call the next day. First the technical interview was organized, then there was the interview with the project manager in Ukraine - one on the phone and the other in Skype call. After the 2nd interview I was told I will receive feedback within a week or so but I didn't - I was told that they needed to see several more candidates before they can decide. I finally received a call ~3 weeks later for a final interview with the Team leader in Bulgaria - I declined because I had already accepted another offer.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Asked mediocre qiestions regarding every technology or skill mentionaed in the CV - how I have aquired those, how were they used in my work. Some practical SQL questions - weird to answer on the phone.
The interview with the manager was more like a conversation - some expected HR questions: Tell me about yourself, what (de)motivates you, what are your strenghts/weeknesses, how do you manage stress, what is most difficult when dealing with a customer, are you ok with overtime work, how do you fell about reporting on a daily basis, do you mind software policy restrictions - no skype/youtube/chat client/etc on your PC, why do you think we should choose you.
One hr technical interview with two interviewer. Automation, Java 8 features, scenario based interview questions were asked.
Panel was separately targeted on Manual testing and Automation concepts, including background you have described.
Being contacted by HR, discussed about my knowledge, everything looked like a great fit. I was asked about salary compensation, a good fit too. Ended with the promission that a follow up will be available soon, but no response received anymore. I tried to contact them, their response was that the position is on hold, as they consider to use an internal employee for this position. Still, the job is available on the hiring platforms. Why would you do that? 0 honestly from them, unprofessional.
Basically 2 rounds, One at the Luxsoft and second with its client
First interview is like casual discussion with basic questions on JAVA and testing
Second: Unfortunately the position got closed from the client end so could not attend
