I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Orange (Gurgaon, Haryana) in May 2018
Interview
The HR mentioned that :
- they will give the coding exercise first
- then one technical discussion
- then managerial discussion
First of all, the HR was very confusing. He took my profile from naukri and scheduled everything but still he looked confused as if he had called me by mistake. Reason is explained below.
With 8 years of experience in design and development, they expected me to answer java MCQs on binary operations and do the calculation on paper. Ok, no issues. Since I have been doing development, I solved 90% problems.
Now comes last 3 programming question. These are small solution oriented questions, just like java psvm programs. 2 Easily done.
The whole issue is with their test platform. It is browser based application. Just to undo some code, i used ctrl+z , and whooop, all of my code was gone. I had to write everything again. so i could solve only 2 out of 3 Qs.
Now comes the worst part. After the test the HR expresses his confusion that hit my ego. Now he says : "we are looking for candidates around 5 years experience. But still I will let you know"
I got mail after 2 days that I am not selected for further rounds. As if I was expecting after such a stup f2f response.
If you are going for interview, please clarify your role and match it with your experience
