Full-Stack/Backend Developer – Interview Focus Areas

The interview is designed to assess not just knowledge, but deep, hands-on expertise and the ability to independently solve advanced problems across backend, frontend, and architectural concepts.

What’s Being Evaluated:

• Technical Depth:
• In-depth expertise in Java (up to Java 17), Spring Boot (APIs, security, configuration), JDBC, Hibernate/JPA (N+1, lazy vs eager loading, query optimization), and advanced Java features (multithreading, lambdas, streams, serialization).
• Scenario-Based Problem Solving:
• Ability to handle real-world scenarios such as API performance tuning, large file uploads, session state management, concurrency, advanced SQL, joins, and indexing.
• Practical Coding & System Design:
• Demonstrated coding skills through live exercises, system design decisions, and the ability to debug and optimize code independently.
• Framework Expertise:
• Proficiency with modern frameworks/tools: Spring Boot (batch/reactive features), REST APIs (security, best practices), Angular (directives, advanced features), Kafka or ActiveMQ.
• Database & Data Handling:
• Experience in RDBMS (Oracle, PostgreSQL), ORM (Hibernate/JPA), and data formats (JSON, XML, YAML), with emphasis on query optimization and serialization.
• Breadth vs. Depth:
• Preference for candidates with recently applied, hands-on skills; surface-level or outdated knowledge is not sufficient.
• Soft Skills for IC Roles:
• Ability to independently take ownership, solve problems, explain logic clearly, and reason through new challenges without relying on others.

Typical Areas Evaluated:

• Technical depth in Java and Spring Boot
• Concurrency and threading understanding
• Coding skills: logic, syntax, problem solving, debugging
• Knowledge of SQL, ORM, and advanced data strategies
• REST/Microservices/API security and best practices
• Recency and hands-on relevance of skills
• Independent ownership and problem-solving ability
