OpenText Interview Experience | SWE | Hyderabad
Summary
I successfully navigated multiple technical rounds and a managerial interview for a Software Engineer role at OpenText in Hyderabad, ultimately receiving an offer.
Full Experience
I recently interviewed for the Software Engineer position at OpenText in Hyderabad. The interview process spanned two to three days and was structured into three main rounds: two technical rounds and one managerial round.
The first technical round focused heavily on coding and basic computer science concepts. I was asked to implement functions for string manipulation, solve a classic puzzle, and demonstrate SQL and OOPs knowledge. We also discussed my projects in detail.
The second technical round delved deeper into API design, problem-solving, and Spring Boot concepts. I had to design a RESTful API and solve another algorithmic problem involving numbers. Several questions were around Spring framework specifics and Git commands. Again, my projects were a point of discussion.
Finally, I moved to the managerial round, which consisted of typical behavioral questions to assess my fit with the team and company culture.
Overall, the interview process was comprehensive. I heard back from HR within a few days and was informed that I had received an offer.
