I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at Opencast (Leeds, England) in Oct 2025
Interview
Pair programming in Java, and question and answer session based on experiences. The task was to pair program a slight variation on the classic palindrome. But the dev environment was visual studio code, rather than than intelliJ which is used typically.
