The interview process was written programming test(1 hr) followed by 2-3 F2F rounds. We came to know from HR after asking many times. There were about 15 odd people for this scheduled drive and all seemed to have come from the same consultancy. Initially the consultancy told that there will be no written and then after going there they asked everyone to take the test.
Written Test - 2 question papers having 3 questions each. You need to first select the question paper and then solve one out of 3 questions. God knows which Einstein this rocket procedure. A single question paper with 6 questions and then have candidates solve any 1 would have worked.
It was clearly written that evaluation will be based on design, logic, code coverage and data modelling.
Interview - After 2 hours of writing the test they called for interview. The person taking interview had just stepped in the office and knew nothing about the questions or the process. I explained him that. Someone talk about professionalism !! Then he started poking holes in my design in the most rude and pompous way. He started saying how he knew the CEOs of some tech companies and what great technologies he was using. He mentioned some technologies which I had never heard - Arjuna framework, XA protocol, Distributed Tx mgmt products, CPU cores and threads, pub-sub, etc. To every answer he used to laugh and giggle in an insulting way. He did not even check my code coverage for JUnit test, logic and data modelling. BTW the position was for Apachec Spark + Python which was there on my resume. But not a single question on it.
It was clear that the questions were designed for Failure and not Selection.
Later checked with many people and turned out that due to their unfriendly (rather humiliating) behaviour no one seems to come to DB for interviews anymore.
Had I knew this earlier I would have chosen to spend my saturday in peace :-)
Advice to Candidates - Be prepared for sledging and humiliation if you go for interviews to Pune office.
