I m considering the interviews at least 10 people attended on that day(while waiting for the next round of interview after clearing the first round, got enough time to discuss the interview process and questions asked to each one) Given interview two times in a month. Shortlisted the profile from a JOB Portal. Only limited people were called for an interview. This is for a QA position. The persons who are taking an interview are not really trained or very limited knowledge about the technology they are recruiting for. The interviewers are not confident. They are not logical enough to engage the conversation in a right way. They have very few questions in mind, everyone will be asked the same questions. No matter what you have mentioned in the resume and how you answer. They always insist until they get what they think is right. They do not want to have any Manual Testers on the floor and one designation like an SDET. Their goal is recruiting some one who is strong at technology for QA positions. The interviewers are not SDETS but the bad thing is most of the interviewers are Manual Testers who have been with the company quiet for some time. The questions are very basic and very particular about the syntaxes and method names. we are expected to remember every method name of JAVA. They simply do not like algorithmic approach and expect us to write code what they have in their mind. No Question is logical and very straight forward. Don't really get a clue in case if the question can not be answered. Tips to clear an interview Do not read JOB Description before you attend an interview Do not show too much programming skills(They do not understand as they never used to it) Stick to the basics and focus on the implementation using the existing JAVA/Tool methods Drive the interview with out getting into too much details of the technology Restrict yourself to one technology/Subject interviewer is familiar with
