      Average interview

      Application

      I interviewed at OpenText (Ottawa, ON)

      Interview

      I was interviewed by 2 Enterprise Architects but the job was not something I got from HR. I was not prepared at all, but due to my 20 years practical experience, there is no problem for me.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      What is the most challenging part you've done as a full-stack software developer?
      Answer question
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at OpenText (Bengaluru) in Feb 2025

      Interview

      This was a very funny interview. The interview questions were very simple but still the interviewer was looking for answers in certain fashion. And after getting to know about the break from work I took and the "deligency" in taking that break, he took it a little personal I think. Anyways it was going to be a practice interview so I am not bothered but it could have been interesting but it was not. I had some trouble sharing my ide's screen but that got sorted out. Man what a dissapointing interview. I won't even call it a practice interview anymore. Tip: Don't share personal stuff with anyone.

      Principal Software Engineer Interview

      Anonymous interview candidate
      Bengaluru

      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at OpenText (Bengaluru) in May 2024

      Interview

      The interview consisted of three technical rounds, one Director-level round, one VP-level round, one HR round, and one online test. I did very well in all the technical rounds. During each round, the interviewers asked me whether I had come through a referral, which made me realize how important referrals can be. I told them that I had applied online.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      The first technical round focused entirely on system design, along with one problem related to HashMap.The second technical round was centered around Spring and core Java concepts.The third round involved a few coding practice questions and one problem to solve.The Director-level round was completely behavioral. In director round asked about my expected salary.The VP-level round was a mix of technical and behavioral questions.All the rounds went well. The HR round was a bit unusual. The HR seemed partially sleepy during the conversation—she yawned in between questions, then suddenly woke up and asked for clarity on my answers. She asked about AI-related I realised she doen't have any understanding about AI. The online question was one medium and other above medium level.All completed after a week I called recruiter , The way he speaks almost confirm the offer and a week later recruiter updated they stop proceeding this process and he ask me how the HR interview went??
