I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at UKG (Noida) in Apr 2018
Interview
Very bad interview process. First round was a technical discussion. The interviewer who was supposed to take my interview didn't come instead one senior developer came. He asked basic questions on core Java and previous projects. Second round with senior manager who came with just one question, if you answer properly then you are selected else rejected. He will judge on just one single question. Very bad approach to interview candidates. After this, HR recruiter asked me to leave for the day. She told me that they would evaluate other candidates and will keep me posted. I waited for one month to get proper feedback. Every time, she used to tell me that I'm not rejected but they're evaluating other candidates. What kind of evaluation is this where you have kept on hold one candidate for a month. Lastly on several follow up, she told me that they have considered other candidate. Recruiter was very unprofessional. Don't go for Kronos, Noida. They will waste your whole day. Will keep you on hold and keep evaluating other candidates in background and finally reject you.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Core Java basic questions. Questions on spring framework and database.
Online coding assessment on random algorithm and data structure questions. Then in person interview with basic html and sql questions, followed up by a white board coding interview. Problem was on the easy side. Function that receives two lists and returns the max between the two
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is a tag in html. What is a left join in sql. Then technical discussion about the specific role
Overall the interview wasn't that much tough, you should know the basics of java and spring boot and Java memory management and it should be enough and in the end interviewer also asked some aptitude based questions.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at UKG (Lowell, MA) in Aug 2025
Interview
Applied via a UKG recruiter. The process started with an online assessment that included 2 coding questions and 1 SQL problem. After completing that, I had a recruiter screening. The recruiter emphasized that their hiring process was “META-level” and that they bring on FAANG-level engineers. However, the salary offered was extremely low—honestly, even interns at big tech companies get paid more.
After the screening, I followed up but received no responses and was eventually ghosted. About a month later, I got an automated rejection email.
Overall, a very disappointing experience: lengthy process, unrealistic bragging, poor compensation, and lack of professionalism in communication.
