    Infosys Finacle Software Engineer interview: college-lab coding and technical depth

    Both rounds happened back to back, around an hour each. The first was an online coding session in a college-lab setting with medium-to-hard DSA questions. They went beyond basic practice problems, but the pace still felt manageable. The second was a deeper technical discussion of core CS, DSA, and system design. The interviewer examined my resume and projects closely, including AI-related areas a…

    Infosys Finacle Software Engineer interview: DSA, SQL, and systems panel

    I had a campus-style interview with two people that lasted about an hour. The first interviewer asked LeetCode-style DSA problems and SQL questions. The second expanded into dynamic programming, OOP, and how a database connects to the backend through APIs, microservices, and related system pieces. The discussion was interactive and friendly, while still grounded in fundamentals and my resume. We…

    Infosys Finacle Software Engineer interview: early offer and smooth onboarding

    The process felt unusually smooth from start to finish, and the offer came early. The interview was straightforward, and onboarding afterward was seamless. Training would start from scratch, so I did not feel judged for not having everything ready on day one.

    Infosys Finacle Software Engineer Interview Experience: AI-led first round

    My earliest round was led by an AI interviewer, and the structure was obvious from the start. Instead of a free-form conversation, the system asked a main question and then chose a follow-up based on my earlier answer. It seemed to be testing both technical grounding and my ability to reason and respond in real time. Those follow-ups made it more than a questionnaire. The AI used what I had said…

    Infosys Finacle Software Engineer Interview Experience: Calm SAP ABAP round

    I had a smooth technical interview focused entirely on SAP ABAP. It was an online round that lasted around 45 minutes, and the atmosphere was calm and manageable. The questions centered on internal tables and RFC, including how they connect at the database level. It did not feel designed to catch me off guard. The point seemed to be whether I understood the ABAP concepts they cared about, and I l…

    Infosys Finacle Software Engineer Interview Experience: Deep technical questions and delays

    The process was more intense than I expected. The early indication was that the technical rounds would go deep into my resume, and they did. I was asked about OOP principles, DBMS, core OS concepts, DSA, and SQL. DSA and SQL kept coming up, and the questions built on one another instead of ending after a single prompt. I went through a couple of interview levels. First came LeetCode-style medium…

    Infosys Finacle Software Engineer Interview Experience: DevOps-focused managerial round

    I moved past the first round and was invited to a face-to-face managerial round. It was different from what I expected. Instead of the front-end or back-end follow-ups I had prepared for, the in-person questions focused on DevOps. The difficulty was average, but the change in direction caught me off guard and I had to recalibrate my answers as we talked. I stayed engaged and tried to remain consi…

    Infosys Finacle Software Engineer Interview Experience: greedy, DP, graphs, and SQL

    The technical part centered on DSA and system design, usually connected to technologies from my resume rather than random theory. I had to solve and explain greedy, dynamic-programming, and graph problems. System-design discussions also covered tree structures, DP, graph reasoning, and SQL. The interviewer was helpful and the process ran smoothly, but the breadth made it harder than a typical eas…

    Infosys Finacle Software Engineer Interview Experience: Hackwithinfy coding rounds

    The process was framed as a Hackwithinfy hackathon, although it did not feel like a typical hackathon. I completed six coding questions across two rounds on two separate days, with MCQs mixed in. Clearing those rounds led to an in-person interview. That interview returned to coding, added a moderate SQL segment, and included system design discussion. The process stayed coding-heavy until the in-p…

    Infosys Finacle Software Engineer Interview Experience: Java basics and an in-person managerial round

    I had two interview rounds. The first was a technical screen on Java basics, with a string-based DSA question. It was straightforward enough that I could focus on explaining my reasoning as well as giving an answer. The second round was an in-person managerial interview. The behavioral questions were basic, and the interviewer kept returning to the skills on my resume and how I solved problems. I…

    The process had two rounds. The technical interview lasted about 30 minutes, followed by a managerial round of around 45 minutes. The technical questions were practical and architecture-focused despite being presented as simple problems. I was asked how to connect two databases in a single microservice and how different microservices communicate. The manager conversation was longer and focused mo…

    Infosys Finacle Software Engineer Interview Experience: Salesforce permissions and Apex testing

    My virtual technical interview ran about 20 to 30 minutes and was focused and demanding. Most questions were Salesforce-specific rather than generic coding. I discussed configurations, flows, and the structure of test classes. They also asked about Apex batch classes, including what they are, their methods, and why queueable classes are preferred in some cases. Scheduled classes came up too, alon…

    Infosys Finacle Software Engineer interview: four DSA questions and system design

    The process had three clear rounds. First came four DSA questions, described as easy, medium, hard, and complex. Clearing that programming round determined whether I moved forward. Then I was given system-design tasks and had to design solutions rather than list technologies. The final technical round tied the DSA and design themes together and also went into my background. The interviewers were…

    Infosys Finacle Software Engineer interview: fundamentals under an unsupportive tone

    The technical questions covered fundamentals such as mergesort, trees, graphs, and basic DSA. I was also asked about my resume and projects, including MERN, HTTP methods, React, Java, and C++. The subject matter was understandable, but when I struggled, the interviewer’s reaction felt unprofessional to me. That changed the tone and made it harder to settle into a smooth problem-solving rhythm. I…
