      Software Developer Interview

      12 Jan 2026
      Anonymous employee
      Pune
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at TIAA (Pune)

      Interview

      The interview process typically begins with an initial screening or recruiter discussion to assess role fit, experience, and expectations. This is followed by one or more technical interview rounds focusing on backend development skills, system design, problem-solving, and real-world scenario discussions. Candidates may be evaluated on coding fundamentals, architecture decisions, and their approach to scalability and reliability. Subsequent rounds often include discussions with senior engineers or hiring managers to assess domain knowledge, collaboration, and alignment with team practices. The process may conclude with a managerial or cultural fit round before final selection.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      They asked me to explain how Java handles concurrency and thread safety in a real production scenario, including synchronization, locks, and how to avoid performance bottlenecks. Explain the difference between synchronized, ReentrantLock, and ReadWriteLock. When would you choose one over the other?

      Software Engineer Interview

      22 Jan 2025
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through university. I interviewed at TIAA in Jan 2025

      Interview

      For selection process there was 3 rounds, 1] Online assessment 2] Technical Round 3] Tech + HR type Round I cleared 1st technical round, 30 student selected for next round, Interview round was on the 21st jan 2025. I will tell you my honest opinion, I had prepared myself based on People's reviews and interview experience (Reviews was saying that interview difficulty level is easy to moderate-easy) but this is not at all correct. In my interview they asked me Core java, all the data structure's Internal implementation(Such as hashmap, cocurrent hashmap, serialisatin and even deeper concept which i havent read seen in My engineering), Then about project's mentioned in my resume. Then they asked me some Medium level DSA questions such Buy stocks and sell, gas station question, then number of days between two dates code in c++. Then for some candidates they were asking puzzles also...So my Opinion is put the things in your resume that you have confidence about...and be confident while giving interview.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Questions are medium to difficult level, but Do the striver's DSA Sheet. The questions were from that sheet only
