DXC Technologies Interview Experience for Associate Professional

I recently had the opportunity to interview at DXC Technologies, a leading global IT services company. The interview process consisted of three rounds, where I had the chance to showcase my technical knowledge, project experience, and personality. Here’s a detailed account of my interview experience:

Round 1: Online Assessment

The first round of the interview process was an online assessment. While this round was more focused on evaluating my technical knowledge through multiple-choice questions and coding exercises, communication rounds, English tests, and reasoning, it served as a gateway to the subsequent rounds.

Round 2: Technical Interview

The second round was a technical interview, where I had the chance to discuss my project experiences and answer various technical questions. I presented two of my projects, the “Weather App” and a “Password Security Analyzer,” and the interviewer delved into the details:

1. Weather App:
   I was asked to explain the APIs I used to gather weather data for different cities.
   I demonstrated running the Weather App for different cities as requested.
2. Password Security Analyzer:
   The interviewer requested a detailed explanation of the code for the Password Security Analyzer project.
3. APIs and Data Retrieval:
   I was questioned about how the APIs in my projects retrieved data, and I admitted that I needed to provide a more comprehensive answer here.
4. Python Topics:
   The interview covered Python topics such as the Global Interpreter Lock (GIL), Exception Handling, and Garbage Collection.

The technical interview also included some HR questions to gauge my personality and future aspirations:

• “Where do you see yourself in the next 5 or 10 years?”
• “Can you share an instance when you demonstrated leadership skills?”
• “What are your hobbies?”
• “What do you consider your strengths and weaknesses?”

Round 3: Further Technical Discussion

I progressed to the third interview round, which was a more in-depth technical discussion. Here are some of the topics covered:

1. Computer Networks:
   I was asked about network topologies.
   The interviewer inquired about the textbook I planned to refer to for Computer Networks.
2. Hobbies:
   Since I mentioned reading books as one of my hobbies, I was asked about Hindi books I’ve read. I cited the “Bhagavad Gita,” which led to further questions about the text.
3. Programming:
   Questions covered Java, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, including the functionalities of each and the distinctions between HTML and JavaScript.
4. Object-Oriented Programming (OOP):
   I was asked to explain the fundamentals of Object-Oriented Programming.

   The interview concluded with questions about my preferred city and timing.
