I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Barclays
Interview
I only completed one round before I dropped out. It was an online test which was about meetings and organising office bits.
The following Monday, I got an email from the talent acquisition partner asking me for info. They asked me my expected salary which was too high for the role. I felt like I had wasted a bit of time had they had the screening process before making me do tests.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Salary Expectations and if I was willing to relocate
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Barclays in Aug 2024
Interview
There were 2 technical rounds. First was taken by a senior developer. Basic questions were asked. If you are strong with fundamentals and good at coding, it is cakewalk. Second was taken by a VP. It was based on kafka tech stack and Java ecosystem. Moderately difficult questions were asked on Spring Kafka. I could not answer few.
