I gave many interviews but EPAMs recruitment is the WORST WORST WORST. They show that withing 10 days they'll complete the interview but almost more than 1.5 month took to complete my interview process to complete . 1st round General interview: where HR will inform u about the process. That after this there will be a technical round for 1.5 hour and then a manager round and then the offer. I cleared the technical which was quite hectic interviewer wasn't agressive but asked so many questions and I even had to code multiple coding questions. So,i was informed that i am selected for manager round. I gave the manager round,i was selected, Then they said and i quote "UNFORTUNATELY THE POSITION U APPLIED FOR WAS ALREADY FILLED SO WE WILL HOLD UR CANDIDATURE" now after 15-17 days i got a call from HR that A new requirement has come and i quote again "WE WILL BE OFFERING YOU (XXX LPA) GIVE ME 2 DAYS AND WE WILL SET UP A MEETING TO DESCRIBE THE COMPENSATION" //after 2 days// I quote again " ACTUALLY WE WONT BE RELEASING THE OFFER NOW BECAUSE MANAGEMENT WANT TO CONDUCT ANOTHER ROUND OF INTERVIEW TO DOUBLE CHECK UR KNOWLEDGE ON JAVASCRIPT" //Just to inform u all EPAM records all of its interview round// Now I had no option other than accepting the new unwanted round This time interview was very agressive and It was a complete hard core coding round he came and pasted a 20+ lines of question to code. And i even answered correctly one of the event loop question which he said was wrong and eventually i ended up losing up the offer. And the HR has no answer to it. I have all the proof of email communication regarding discussion on the process of interviewing . SERIOUSLY EPAM HAS A PATHETIC RECRUITMENT SYSTEM I WISH I COULD GIVE -VE RATINGS

The whole process took 2 weeks. First, I applied for a job on Linkedin and in that same week, I got an HR interview scheduled. That interview was mostly about the company and your previous experience with development, it took around half an hour. The second round was a technical interview, which took 90 minutes and had basics to advanced questions about Java, JVM, Spring Framework, OOP concepts, AWS, CI/CD, data structures, Stream API, lambdas, strings, unit testing, microservices, design patterns, SQL, NoSQL, SOLID principles, agile routine, HTTP and HTTPS protocols. Some of these questions required live coding with the interviewer for, an example, demonstrating how a specific concept works. The third round was the job offer, which stated what would be your salary, benefits, and how would your integration into the company happen. Unfortunately, I refused the offer since the compensation was below my expectations.

The selection for a position in EPAM Anyware (the full remote division of EPAM) was structured in two different interviews (both in remote via Microsoft Teams): The first one was the general interview with an HR member. This interview was very easy and quick, discussing the type of contract, the role that they were searching for and what I was actually looking for. The second one was a technical interview, held by an indian team lead. This actually disappointed me, because I was applying for the italian team and I hoped to know someone of my future team. Anyway, this interview lasted for around an hour in which he asked me several in depth language specific and software architecture questions. Finally there was also an exercise to write an algorithm in pseudo-language to print all the elements stored in a tree data structure. After three working days the HR person of the first interview writes me that the position for which I was applying for was already closed and I had to wait for other positions to open. I found this treatment very unprofessional and a waste of time, since if the HR person would have told me before that this position was already closed, I would have considered the other open positions and decided to go on or not based on the available options, instead I had to make a technical interview without having the opportunity to get to a final job offer. I hope nobody gets this experience, but as far as I am concerned I will not apply for another position of this company.
