      Amsterdam
      Accepted offer
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Backbase in Jun 2022

      Interview

      Entire Interview Process was very well streamlined and took about 3 weeks to complete. HR was quick in giving feedback and kept in touch throughout the process. It consists of 3 rounds followed by HR discussion 1. Online Assessment(Contains a mix of development and DSA tasks) 2. Technical Discussion 3. Techno Managerial Discussion 4. HR Round

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Brush up on your core skills especially Java 8, Spring, Springboot and Microservices Architecture. Also touch upon easy and medium level problem solving questions from GFG or Leetcode.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Backbase (Amsterdam) in Nov 2022

      Interview

      The interview process is split into 5 moments: HR contact, technical challenge (and here you can choose if you want a technical assignment or a technical conversation), technical interview (based on the assignment), cultural screening and proposal. The whole process is very empathetic and open to brainstorm. Also, it looks focused in company cultural fit rather than technical excellence (besides still giving quite an importance to it, given the role)

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      There are not necessarily question but more an open conversation. Although, it is clear that some aspects are important, such as code design, decision making, web security and so on
