Interview
I recently interviewed for an SDE role at EPAM Systems, and overall the process was quite difficult and very technical.
The interview process had multiple rounds focused heavily on problem-solving, DSA, core CS fundamentals, and practical coding ability. The coding rounds were tougher than I expected — not just standard LeetCode-style questions, but also follow-up optimizations, edge cases, and discussions around time and space complexity. The interviewers kept pushing deeper whenever I solved something quickly.
One of the challenging parts was that they didn’t just want a working solution; they expected clean code, good communication, and strong reasoning throughout. I was asked to explain trade-offs, optimize approaches, and sometimes even redesign the solution midway based on new constraints
I gave this interview a few months back and they asked a couple of questions which were from DSA to then diving deep into explaining them the pseudocode did not have to run the complete code on a compiler but only explain the pseudocode. The interviewer also focused on the projects which I had done earlier along with the specialization subjects studied in the college academic year.
Then I was cleared for the second round of interview which consisted a lot around cloud and DevOps asking more questions on AWS and its service. This interview also did revolve around AI engineering as I had that on my resume because of one internship.
Soon after that I received the offer letter.

Interview
The interview process consisted of three rounds. First was a pen and paper coding round with easy questions. This was followed by a group discussion, which was also easy. The final technical and HR interviews were easy to medium in difficulty and focused on basics and communication skills.
