Interview process went smooth. I cleared 1st round and forwarded to 2nd round.
Ist round was just like any other interview where the interviewer drilled down on my skills i mentioned on resume. It was good experience.
2nd round was bit uncomfortable where the interviewer put me in difficult position by expecting answers in his way. In my total experience this was the worst ever interview experience i had.
In my past there was a time when one of my interviewer has expressed his feedback in constructive way which helped in growing my career. But i have to say this would be my worst experience. I definitely dont want to be in a team where i have to report to such a manager. A definite NO
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1.Program to convert uppercase char in given string to lowercase with appending that char with a special char.
For this i tried writing code but he kept targetting me as i dont seem to know much as he knows according to him.
2.given an input field accepting number values from -2lakh to +2lakh range, how will i perform my manual testing
for this i answered saying will divide my testdata into ranges and using boundry values i will proceed further testing. But for this he is expecting me to give answer for what is terminology for ranges(here its partition technique, which i failed to give).
3.provided root cause analysis done and narrowed down to issue on application how will i communitate with develper on this issue.
for this i started saying that i will give a complete detail on env, domain, and steps to reproduce the issue, and there he stopped me and imposing have i ever looked into application logs in my total experience and questioning me on my working, for which i said that i do work on logs and know how to analyse exceptions occured on application, but he is not convinced that until he brought up word "log" i havent say that. which actually i havent finished my anwser yet.
A very bad conversation i had till now. I didnt expected this from such a good company.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at OpenText (Bengaluru) in Aug 2020
Interview
Got call from opentext he team. The hr was very descriptive about the interview process. Cleared hacker rank test, plus one technical round. Second round was taken by a utter unprofessional lady who was taking interview online by sleeping and not at all willing to listen. The job profile said selenium with java/python I'm a python guy but emphasis was given only on java even when I answered most of the questions but the arrogant interviewer lady was keen on showing her bulliness as if she knows entire testing and was asking me who took your first round as if she was going to blast the person who cleared my first round. Utter waste of time they are not clear what they want. UTTERLY UNPROFESSIONAL!!!!!
