๐งช Expected Interview Rounds at Synechron

- Round 2 โ Technical L1: Core Java, Java 8+, collections, OOP, coding, SQL and Spring Boot.

- Round 4 โ Managerial/HR: Communication, project ownership, reason for change, compensation and joining availability.
๐ Preparation Tips
Prioritize Quarkus + Hexagonal Architecture rather than preparing only generic Spring Boot questions. Be ready to explain why an organization might choose Quarkus for cloud-native applications and how you would structure ports, adapters and domain logic.
Revise microservices patterns including API Gateway, service discovery, circuit breakers, distributed transactions, asynchronous communication and observability.
Practice Java coding involving Collections, Streams, concurrency and exception handling. Also prepare SQL queries, REST API scenarios, Maven lifecycle, Git workflows and CI/CD pipelines.
Because AI-assisted development is specifically mentioned, be prepared to explain how you use tools such as Copilot or similar assistants while still reviewing generated code, validating security and maintaining code quality.
๐ Resume Tips
Make Java + Microservices + Quarkus + Spring Boot immediately visible near the top of your resume. If you have actually implemented Hexagonal Architecture, explain where it was used rather than merely listing it as a keyword.
Add measurable achievements such as API latency reduction, transaction volume handled, deployment-time reduction, automation improvements or successful migration from monolith to microservices.
