SLB Software Engineer interview: Java concepts and linked lists

SLB·Software Engineer·Reported Jul 2026
Technical ScreenMedium

The technical interview focused on Java concepts and data-structures fundamentals. I was asked about OOP, including the idea behind an "oops" concept and what variables to declare when creating an object. There were also linked-list questions.

The questions were not presented as tricks. They tested whether my everyday Java knowledge and core data-structures understanding were really there. The quick shifts between concepts and implementation made it tough at times. I did not get an offer, but I left with a clear picture of what the role expected: solid Java fundamentals and comfort with linked lists.

Location: Coimbatore. Overall feedback: positive. Offer status: no offer.
