      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at JCPenney in Nov 2019

      Interview

      The interview was over the phone with one of their engineers, the questions were related to Spring, web security and some java fundamentals. The dude threw some random vague questions with open ended answers, and was looking for key words, which something I didn't like, I kept ask him for more clarifications and collaborations, but it seems like he was go by the book person, 30 minutes of questions, but didn't feel he was trying to get the best out of me, he was just trying to prove that he knew thing that I didn't know. anyway, I didn't get a good vibe from the interview or the environment he belongs to.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      1) How do we handle transactions in MongoDB (if they fail)? 2) How do we change/update configuration on the fly ? 3) How do micro-services communicate with each others ? 4) What are the different scopes of beans in Spring? 5) What do you do when you have multiple services running, and some of them starts slowing down ? 6) Based on what criteria you package/create a micro-service? 7) Where do you use local storage? where do you use cookies? 8)How does Spring handle/track session scope? request scope?

      Anonymous employee
      Bengaluru
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at JCPenney (Bengaluru) in Oct 2019

      Interview

      Interview is not difficult but process is lengthy and unnessary couple of behavioural discusiions which took couple of days extra and doesnt make much sense. I believe they can trim or look back at their interivew process which can be more towards techincal and one behavioual round if needed.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      More on the real time scenario questions which is good discussion.
