I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Backbase (Amsterdam)
Interview
First a 30 minute call with recruiter who explained about the role, the salary range and gave opportunity for questions. Second a take-home coding test, which took around 2 hours and wasn't too difficult. Third round was an interview with two principal engineers with conceptual questions, discussions and a live-coding test. Last interview was with product manager and members of the project team which focussed more on the business side, how I would make certain decisions and to see if a fit with the team was there. Overall a very pleasant experience with quick reaction times and friendly people. Gave me a positive impression of Backbase

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Backbase (Bhiwandi) in Jul 2021
Interview
There was 3 round of interview.
The first was an Angular test. It was followed by a technical interview and cultural fitness round. Interview lengths were normal from 30 minutes to 1 hour.
I really liked all 3 rounds. I myself take interviews, it is a learning for me to improve the interview-taking process.

Interview
I was given an assignment to complete within a week time after initial phone screening. This was to design a bank website UI prototype. I submitted the assignment while taking care of all the necessary checks and validation. I got an email update couple of days later that the assignment was not up to what they are expecting and they came up with absurd reason to deny the position. They are just looking to get their basic framework done for free without paying a penny.
