      Lead Java Engineer Interview

      1 Dec 2024
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Zürich
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 8 weeks. I interviewed at EPAM Systems (Zürich)

      Interview

      Please stay professional during the entire application process and inform the candidates accordingly. And train your interviewers to stay professional as well. Here is my application process: I had three interviews with Epam and never heard from them again after the last one despite asking for an update explicitly. It's very unprofessional to ghost candidates who have gone through multiple interviews. To make things even worse, the third interview was supposed to be the final one. It went pretty well, but just because I had a different opinion from the interviewer on one topic (this was a lead position, so it's perfectly fine to have different opinions on some topics as long as you justify your opinion, which I did), he insisted that I was wrong and he was right; and even though the rest of the interview went pretty well (even the interviewer said that too), he said something like this at the end of the interview: "Everything is good, but you are wrong on this topic so I am not sure if I will recommend you". I've never encountered such unprofessional behavior in an interview. All in all, it was a very disappointing process and a waste of time, so I wouldn't recommend Epam to anyone.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      1st technical interview: various Java questions (e.g. new features from 17 to 21), HTTP and REST API theory questions, and a LeetCode-style programming question. 2nd technical interview: more situational and experience-based questions. "How would you handle this with your team or client?" or "How would you ensure agile practices are followed?" etc.
