Zensar Software Engineer interview: an unexpected technical evaluation during HR

The first round was a fairly straightforward technical discussion of fundamentals and object-oriented programming. Afterward, I expected a general HR conversation.

Instead, that discussion became a full technical evaluation with little warning. I wasn't ready for the sudden change. The interviewer seemed impatient and unprofessional, asking questions rapidly without making much effort to understand my answers. It affected me enough that I needed a few days to feel settled again.

The material itself was within what I'd expect for a Java/OOP role. The tone and what felt like a lack of respect were harder to deal with than the difficulty. I never received an offer. What I remember most is how the assessment was handled.

Location: Pune. Overall feedback: negative. Offer status: no offer.
