Summary

I interviewed for a Sr Associate Software Development Engineer position at Workday, which involved an Online Assessment, a Technical Interview, and an Object-Oriented Design round. I was rejected after the third round.

Full Experience

I am a 2023 graduate from tier 3 college, with 2 years of experience in Java backend

Applied through the career site.
Had a 15-minute meeting with HR to discuss the role, work culture, and interview process.

Round 1 – Online Assessment
There was 1 question in total, focused on building an inventory management system.
The goal was to test OOP concepts in Java.

Round 2 – Technical Interview
This was still a screening round, conducted by a Principal Engineer.
Questions were focused on data structures and algorithms (DSA) and also tested understanding of leadership principles.

Round 3 – Object-Oriented Design (OOD)
A HackerRank link was shared for a whiteboarding session.
The task was to build a class diagram for a banking system, with some constraints provided.
The interview was conducted by a Principal Engineer and a Senior Engineer.

Didn’t get through Round 3. :(
