I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Rocket Software
Interview
Unprofessional! I felt like giving a college level Viva instead of an a Professional job interview.
Hiring team itself unaware of what profile they want. JD mentioned Python, All interview rounds conducted in Java. While JD mentioned all the IT jargons known in the industry It was quite unclear what they exactly wanted from the candidate.

-Docker commands
-Jenkins Pipeline development
-Linux commands
-Shell scripting

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Rocket Software (Pune) in Dec 2023
Interview
Internal Recruitment Team emailed me with the JD and requested with an updated resume.
First round was a telephonic short interview. Where the questions were asked mostly on basic Java and why are you looking for change
- In the second round of interview it was pure technical where there were some Java Programming and concepts of QA was asked. We also went through the resume and interviewer asked me questions from the projects I worked.
- The third round of interview was again a technical one where more emphasis was given on problem solving in Java. Interviewer allowed using Google to find any particular library which we can use to solve a problem. In short interviewer was mostly focusing on problem solving skills
- The Fourth interview was directorial round where few technical questions with respect to Java and behavioral questions were asked. Apart from all relevant questions like the reason for job change and strength and weakness. Just make sure you stay truthful on what you say because the interviewers are really excellent in catching mugged up answers.
