Junior Java Developer Interview Questions

"Junior developers are often responsible for writing the more monotonous and simple code required by senior members of the development team. Because of this, interviews will be designed to test your knowledge of the fundamentals of Java so be prepared to answer technical questions that you likely came across in college. Data structures and algorithms will be heavily emphasised. A bachelor's degree or equivalent work experience is required. "

Technical weeder questions followed by a more extensive whiteboard question. Not too difficult and understanding of technical limitations. Behavioral was very relaxed and low key. Didn't feel like an interview really.

The surprising part: During the Technical Screening round, I was asked questions like: How do you deploy a Spring Boot application in production? What is Spring Boot Actuator, and how do you do health checks? What is the N+1 problem in Hibernate? How can you speed up a Spring Boot app in production? These are good technical questions, but it was unexpected coming from an HR professional. During an HR screening round. At the end, I was told they are looking for experienced candidates, even though it was clearly a fresher role.
