I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at CA Technologies (Hyderābād) in Apr 2011
Interview
1st Technical Interview with team mates - both Senior software engineers - to check if I was really worth further interviewing. Basic algorithms and less coding.
2nd Technical Interview with manager - to identify what areas I have worked on - 2 hours long.
3rd Interview with Director - mostly about the company, practices and expectations.
Screening/Interview was rather unorganized, but after the initial discussion it took some direction.
Despite the weird format at the beginning, the interviewer was professional and senior, so we had interesting technical discussion
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
general discussion about mathematics, computer science etc.
4 rounds of interview = 3 technical interview and one managerial interview with VP
1. Basic java
2. Programming , OOPs ,Design
3. Databases
4. Manager + VP
Had two people in a coupe of rounds. It was in person
A phone interview with HR and for the on site 3 separate interviews; one with the managers and two other interviews for the technical questions. During the interview, some people on the panel were very rude and their behavior was completely unethical in a way I wanted to leave the interview!! Sometimes the interview itself reveals the company culture easily and I was lucky enough to notice that before it was too late.
