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.
