Round: Technical Interview
Experience: Interview was for 30 minutes duration. They have started with basic concepts like Abstract, Interface etc. Then they moved to core java. Some basic question on core java related to Exceptions, try-catch-finally blocks. Spring MVC basic questions, bean mapping questions. use of tomcat server in eclipse.
Tips: I was lucky at that day.
Interview was more likely of fresher level. I was first in the interview process, interviewer were not ready, so they directly asked few questions to me.
Level of interview was not up to the mark, I prepared for tougher interview, gone thru 500+ questions on core java, spring, hibernate, exceptions and try catch.
0-3 years in java is equivalent to fresher. But you have to be prepared for worst if you really wanted the job.
Before going to the interview, Do hands-on.
