Send us profiles only after you have one of your Senior Java Developers
Internally Screen and Rank the candidate on these topics:

Algorithms/Data structures
Lists, Arrays, Trees – operations, and complexities
One sorting algorithm – implementation + complexity
One searching algorithm – implementation + complexity
Should know when to use what data structure
Stack, Queue – operations, and complexities

*Java *
Collections: Sets, Maps, Lists – operations and complexities
Maps: HashMap, should know how to implement a simple one (using two arrays,
example), how it works, hash collisions etc.
Strings: Operations, complexity, immutability
OOP/ Generics: Subtype, supertype, what is final, what is static etc.
Exceptions: Runtime, compile time, errors, handling



*Other stuff *Any 1 design pattern, where it is used etc.
REST, SOAP: What is the difference, why to use one over another
Authorization v Authentication
Different HTTP status codes, what is client side error, what is a server
error
JavaScript: What is server side, what is client side, where would you use
it.


*Advanced Stuff **Threads*: Threadpools, synchronization, what is
multithreading, race conditions, volatile, how to design with thread
safety, maybe pub-sub implementation, locks

Here is some additional feedback provided by one of our Sr. Java Tech
Leads:

To set the tone – you can expect questions similar to below ones during the
client rounds.
1. Write a function to randomize a given array of elements
(integer/string/any type)
2. Write a program to construct a binary search tree.
3. Given a binary search tree, find the distance between two random nodes.
4. Given a list of string, write a program to find a high-frequency word in
the list.

I would emphasize you to focus on the following areas for the client round:
• Java Programming (Write as many programs as you can to get yourself
comfortable with basic programming constructs)
• Data structures – go through all basic data structures and their ADT &
operations.
• Search the internet for problem-solving questions and try to solve them
yourself. (optimal solution)

Thanks...
