Pathetic.
1st round was written, decent one and they completed the assigning and correction quickly.
3rd Round: guy knew what he was expecting and asked questions based on it. All questions are from Java, Spring and Database queries. Decent round.
2nd Round: Worst interviewer I have faced by far. He was arrogant and was laughing when I answered and for everything I say, I get a reply, "I know that". You should not be in interview panel if you there to show off. Specially if you do not know things. I had hard time explaining him, Java HashMap can have collisions in a index and to resolve that they use linear chaining using linkedlist. But he started saying there are no collisions and saw sort of mockery smile( not sure what is the term for that :) ). Then came why Java 8 has BST in HashMap implementation, his say was it is because linked list can grow longer that is why BST is added. From what I know, Java already have load factor to check that. Instead I feel they use BST to avoid frequent rehashing. Overall Pathetic.
I do not know if I am shortlisted for managerial or HR discussion. But, frankly I do not want to even consider the company for these discussions.
Hiring manager should know , your interview panel is the first place candidate interacts with you .
Interview Panel needs serous training in terms of behaviour.

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at UnitedHealth Group
Interview
I had a screening call with the recruitment team which went ok, but the recruiter was quite rude.
After that i was sent out the technical assignment which i returned within a few days.
I've had no feedback, I've tried emailing several times and I've just been "ghosted". Very unprofessional to hand out and assignment for someone to spend time on, and then just ignore the candidate.

Question 1
Asked about my experience in software engineering.
Interviewers gave brief of job role and company and then I was asked for short brief about myself. Later I was given a coding exercise to complete within 1 hour with my web cam turned on.
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at UnitedHealth Group (Denver, CO) in Dec 2022
Interview
It was for a contract position for Optum. So there was only one round and it was for one hour. I would not recommend contract positions in this company since there is no job security and they end contracts all the time.

It was for a contract position for Optum. I was asked some basic CSS questions like box modal and centering div. I was asked about Angular dependency injection and it's use cases. Had to talk about reusable components and about some examples on how I've utilized it in my past projects.
