I applied online. I interviewed at Equifax (New York, NY) in Dec 2016
Interview
During the first phone screen as a part of their "compliance process" they ask for my current salary, bonus, benefits and be specific. Were unable to continue the process/conversation when I refused to disclose my current compensation. When I offered to talk about my compensation goal, they told me that I still need to disclose my current salary and package and without that we could not continue the conversation.

I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at Equifax in Jan 2026

The first interview was with a solutions architect, and we went through my résumé, and I explained what I did. He asked me a few technical questions that related to things on my résumé.
The second interview was with the managing Director, which was similar to the first interview, but it also went over what the role would be and how it was set up.

On the first day of the interview process, there was an initial screening that lasted for about one hour, where I was asked questions about Java, React, and other relevant topics.

Can you explain the difference between an abstract class and an interface?
How does the Java garbage collector work, and what are the different types of garbage collection algorithms?
Can you explain the concept of "lifting state up" in React? Provide a scenario where it would be necessary.
Attended walkin interview. Total 3 rounds are there. But even after selection they didn't released offer letter. Almost a month I was following with HR everytime they told that they are waiting for approval. This is the worst experience as a candidate. Please don't waste others time
