I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at EPAM Systems (Recife, Pernambuco)
Interview
A recruiter contacted me on LinkedIn for a job position in the US with visa sponsor. First there was a 30 min interview with someone from HR to talk about experience, background, salaries etc.
Then a 1h30min technical interview with another developer. Asked a lot of questions about java core, springboot, database concepts, CI/CD... same things most of the technical interview ask. Interviewer was really nice though. There was a live coding exercise about data structure and he was helping all the way.
Passed the tech interview and they let you choose one of the cities in the US they have projects. Then you talk with another person from HR to align expectations, salaries and talk about the visa process.
After that meeting I refused the offer because salary was way below average comparing to other companies in the US.

5 step of it. HR, OA, Technical Interview, HR Manager Interview, Company Interview and Offer. HR team were really helpful in every step of the process. There is a puzzle of OA which was looking simple but you have to manage your timing. I cannot see the beyond because that position was closed...

Question 1

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at EPAM Systems (Bangalore Rural) in May 2026
Interview
Total waste of my time. I had cleared 2 technical rounds and HR scheduled project interview round. After this HR said you have cleared project round and you will have one more managerial round.
That manager doesn’t even have a clue about the project I am getting tagged into. Asked some stupid questions.
And after all this HR called and updated me you have not cleared the Project round, I will try for different project.
Why did you even conduct the managerial round when I have not cleared the Project interview at first place.
I had to give like 5 rounds of interview and then no updates.
