      Java Developer Interview

      2 Oct 2013
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Union Bank in Sept 2013

      Interview

      I was contacted by a recruiter and was set up to have a phone interview. They didn't call at the appointed time, so it was rescheduled 4 times. 30 minute interview with a couple of very heavily accented developers. They asked very basic Java questions. Was told that I didn't have enough "functional knowledge", which was frustrating because I know all my answers were spot on. I believe the foot-dragging of the phone calls indicates they never intended to hire me and were only going through the motions for whatever reason.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Easy questions. "How does a hash table work?" "What is the difference between inner and outer join?" "How do you use the Synchronized keyword in Java?" "What is the difference between REST and SOAP?" "Why would you use MongoDB vs. Oracle?" "What is ThreadLocal?" Be careful about the Synchronized question, it was obvious that the interviewer didn't know about the java.util.concurrent package, so lecturing the interviewer about it won't get you any points.
