I applied through LinkedIn and got my interview scheduled within 72 hours. The L1 round was for 90 minutes. I have 13 years of experience as a .NET Full Stack Lead with expertise in Angular, Azure, and DevOps. The interviewer had 12 years of experience. The interview started with an array coding question where I wrote the logic, but it didn’t run due to a syntax issue. After that, for the next 90 minutes, there were 5–6 more coding problems involving LINQ and one SQL problem. I did decently—my SQL query was correct, and 2–3 LINQ queries were also correct. A few questions I was unable to answer included “What is ValueTask?” and “What is .NET Standard?” Apart from those, I was able to answer the rest. When I asked for feedback, I was told I needed to improve my coding skills. Despite a 90-minute technical interview, I haven’t received any rejection email from EPAM. Tips for senior professionals: Avoid applying to EPAM if you're already working at a Big 4 or major tech company. The interviewers tend to have a lot of ego. Even if you have 15 years of experience and are interviewing for an Architect role, be prepared for array and LINQ questions—as they often don’t differentiate between a Lead Engineer and an Architect.

they are not a proffissional, and they try to give less even they know it should be more, taking too much interviews for no thing valuable, only one was good but he left the decision for the non proffessinal guy in Russia, he just trying to reduce the requested salary and tjis is his target, then I refused then they agreed then I refused thst as well becsuse i did not like that way at all
