I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Leidos in Mar 2018
Interview
First a phone screen was done, and then an 8-hour interview. They were talkative all the way throughout the interview but suddenly never got in touch with me after the interview even after indicating that they might hire me. it was a bit too difficult, considering the interview had so many stages. Similar to other large tech. company interviews. Not satisfied with the lack of communication afterwards.
Simple and just general coding questions. Prepare knowledge of Java and PL/SQL. Understanding of Agile and Scrum. Understanding how to create Jar and Wars. Using TortoiseSVN. Security questions. General coding and developer questions.
