I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Luxoft (Bucharest, Bucuresti) in May 2021
Interview
Online interview.
Only place so far where no one put video on.
First interview, the tech guy was late 10 minutes, HR person didn't bother filling the gap with information and left once tech guy arrived. Very laid back attitude, almost unprofessional one might say. All went well
Second interview, Project manager and a Business Analyst i think. Soft discussions getting to know each other. Again, the same too laid back attitude, could hear one of them smoking during the interview, even mentioned it briefly.
Next meeting would have been with the client. I get his with a mail stating "Sorry but we won't proceed with the recruiting process because we don't have any current openings matching your profile"
Mind you, I have over 7 years of Oracle experience at this time. Not butthurt, I just want to share the experience

I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at Luxoft
Interview
One round with hiring manager, little technical mostly HR. Calm and positive but haven't heard back as they said they have other candidates in pipeline. Still waiting. But questioned on coding principles.
it can vary, they care only about client response. so you mostlikely do different rounds for the company and then for client, if the client does not want you even if you exceed luxoft interview it does not matter
The interviewer asked questions related to modern C++ and its standards. It was a nice and well thought interview on the fundamentals of the language as well as software development principles. The interviewer was clear in their questions and followup questions about the job were also well thought.
