The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Backbase
Interview
I applied through LinkedIn, process took 3-4 weeks. Everyone I interacted with was very friendly and warm, and they looked like they know what they are doing. During all discussions/interviews I felt very comfortable, and really enjoyed process. I felt that these people are people I would enjoy working with, and this was a deciding factor for choosing Backbase over other companies I had the possibility to join at the time. I am very confident about my choice, and really look forward to starting this new (and if all goes well, long) chapter in my professional life.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Had to study a case I was given, and present my analysis, and approach on solving the issues involved
Overall easy and well structured, they will reach out and the interviewers are friendly and they want to know you better and some technical questions and problem solving, nothing out of the box
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Backbase (Hyderābād) in Sep 2024
Interview
I have been giving leadership interviews and I must say, Backbase has really followed all standards throughout the process. And complete process was candidate supportive and having positive intent of hiring. On top of that I never felt, I am not part of Backbase in this interview process. So kudos to complete team, who has in-visioned and crafted this inclusive and respectful experience.
