Next was a technical with only OOP questions and discussion of your projects/experience. Overall fairly easy. This round lasted an hour.

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
To write a recursive program, and demonstrate various basic maths operations.
An aptitude test with little coding, was long.
I passed it, they called me today saying I passed and that next is video interview. Then they told me salary is 58,000 non negotiable. That was an insult. I am a masters student, that alone should make me worth more than 58,000 during this hard pandemic. 58k is below average for that role at every company I’ve seen. Unacceptable, I might as well go work at McDonald’s, similar pay easier job.
