The test was conducted on the HirePro platform and consisted of Aptitude questions, logical reasoning, and verbal questions which were of easy difficulty. Next was the technical section which consisted of CS-related MCQs(Computer Networks, DBMS, OS, DSA). And the last section consisted of one easy coding question. The question I got was to find how many subsequences of an array had a sum of the given target sum. I solved it using the brute force approach.

My interview process started with a 30-minute recruiter call where we discussed my current work at Optum, my stack, and what I was looking for in the next role. A few days later I had a technical phone screen with one of the senior engineers on the team. We spent about 45 minutes on a coding problem around string manipulation and then walked through a few questions on Java concurrency and Spring Boot internals. After that I moved to the virtual onsite, which was four rounds spread across a single day. The first round was a system design discussion where I designed a scalable order management service using event-driven patterns with Kafka. The second was a deep dive into React and Next.js, covering rendering strategies, state management, and how I would structure a large frontend codebase. The third was a hands-on coding round on a shared editor where I built out a small API with proper validation and error handling. The final round was behavioral, focused on cross-team collaboration, conflict resolution, and how I approach mentoring. I got feedback within a week, followed by a hiring manager wrap-up and an offer conversation shortly after.
