J'ai postulé via une agence de recrutement. J'ai passé un entretien chez Barclays (Pune) en mars 2026
Entretien
The interview process started with a Virtual Technical Interview conducted by two interviewers.
The discussion began with a brief self-introduction, followed by questions related to AI adoption in my project.
The rest of the interview focused on QA involvement in SDLC, Java coding, automation framework concepts, and CI/CD practices using GitLab.
The interviewer appeared to be strongly inclined toward their own way of approaching problems. Some questions were not clearly framed, and it seemed that the expected answers needed to align with their specific method, which made the conversation somewhat confusing at times.
