I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Teradata (Hyderabad) in Mar 2021
Interview
I applied online and was contacted a month later. HR scheduled a technical interview.
Technical interview has questions on java, micro services and my project.
I was asked to write java code for 3 questions.
It lasted for 1hr 10mins and i got a call in 2hours saying i passed the round. Then they scheduled for techno managerial interview after 2days.
This round has java questions, a java code and managerial questions and salary expectation.
I got a call the next day saying i was selected and then salary discussion and offer letter in 3 days.
Total process took around 2 weeks from initial call.
Had a phone interview with an engineer. Went extremely well and seemed as though I was going to move forward. They didn't email me back for over a month and then finally told me that the position had been changed. Not cool man
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Deep questions about my resume and project/work experience.
(This is from 2017)
I had applied online for a new grad position.
Interview began with a phone call from a recruiter who asked some questions about me, my experience etc.
Received a multiple-day coding challenge next which was to design a REST API for a data dump they provided a link to. After submitting this, I had to follow up with the recruiter after 2 weeks to go ahead in the process.
For the onsite, I had around 4 rounds (3 technical and 1 with the hiring manager). Overall they went well, but I wasn't able to answer some questions about scalability since I had no prior experience.
After the onsite, I was told to expect a decision in a week. I got ghosted by the recruiter for around a month, before being informed they were planning on extending an offer. However, the recruiter again went AWOL and I got a call after a month informing they were not proceeding with an offer since they wanted to hire someone more senior.
Overall, the process 2.5 months and was just time wasted.
