I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at EPAM Systems (Natal, Rio Grande do Norte) in Jun 2025
Interview
The process is too long, with many interviews and code challenges. But the interview with client was the much bad one (and was the last in their process).
Unfortunately, the client made a short interview with only 10 minutes, just to parse two LeetCode problems.
He didn't considered any experience from my previous jobs and he didn't ask anything about my background. Just passed the LeetCode problems.
Other Python Developer interview reviews for EPAM Systems
I applied online. I interviewed at EPAM Systems (Belgrade, Central Serbia) in Nov 2025
Interview
It consisted of 3 stages. The first one was with recruiter, it took about 45 minutes. She told me about the company, hiring process, ask regular questions like "tell me about yourself", "why this position". Discussed some legal details. She was really nice and east to talk.
The second part was technical, about 1, 5 hour. Questions about the Python core, as typical as it can be; several questions about DB (really a couple), superficially async and web. Live coding for about 10-15 minutes, easy-level (don't remember exactly, but like decorator).
The third step was with hiring manager, talked about expectations, salary, goals... It appeared that I don't fit the position because of the grade, salary. Also discussed AI, possibility to take frontend, DevOps tasks and so on. I think they were looking for someone more "universal". So they refused after that step.
The gaps between stages sometimes were long, like a week or a couple of weeks.
Overall, I liked the experience, because it was clear. There are prons and cons, but in common it's pretty predictable process.

Interview
Tuve una llamada con el reclutador y luego una entrevista técnica de Python, los dos fueron muy amables, en la entrevista me preguntaron cosas de python, OOP y cosas generales de mi experiencia.
Después me dijeron que sí la había pasado como mid level y me dijeron una pre-oferta y me dijeron que seguía la entrevista con el cliente.
A la siguiente semana me llamo el reclutador y me dijo que me iban a contratar directo a banca, pero que se habian equivocado y la preoferta iba a ser un poco mas baja, igual lo acepte y me dijo que la siguiente semana me iba a mandar la oferta escrita, paso un tiempo y no recibi nada y me dijo que siempre no me iban a contratar de forma directa y que si tenia que hacer la entrevista con un cliente.
Pasaron unas 3 semanas para tener la entrevista con un cliente, y la verdad me fue mal, me pregunto mucha cosa de AWS que no me esperaba, porque queria alguien para migrar su monolith a AWS lo cual no sabía antes de la entrevista, y pues no me dieron oferta, el reclutador me dijo que iban a buscar otro cliente pero que iba estar dificil eso fue hace como dos semanas, yo creo que no me quiso decir que hasta ahi llegue.
Un poco decepcionado con el proceso de que me decian una cosa y al ultimo no y todo un poco tardado pero fuera de eso las personas que me entrevistaron fueron amables, incluso en la entrevista con el cliente que me fue muy mal.

Question 1
¿Sabes cuál es la diferencia de asyncio y threading?
Very basic interviewer reading question's and asking, when its a technical round why don't they give for technical person to conduct interview? I had selected but Rejected offer due to 1) recruiter seems very rude
