Today's onsite with E. Financial

The first interview was with Lead and then the Director. It went smooth and then next one was pretty interesting. I hadn't looked through the Automation test and Framework for a while. I remembered most of the stuff but, there were few I didn't know how to answer those.

M was helpful in a way to give me hints. There were few questions, I didn't know how to answer. I had to give two tries and I think I almost got it right. The reason, the interview was interesting is that. the person who interviewed me was an Automation Developer for 15 years before. And found out, he also was a part of WebDriver developer. No wonder he asked me nitty gritty questions. I liked the questions, it taught me what I need to improve on.

After a few minutes of conversation, I was asked how to identify a div on a page, when there are multiple of them. I wrote the xpath and he was convinced that I knew what I am doing. Then the next thing was related to Page Object Pattern, then the tests and also about how do you go about writing test so that it was be reused. No hardcoded values. It was a good feedback, I need to look into how to do that. I have seen it in the course but I haven't tried.

The whole thing was about 35-40 minutes and Linda came to get me. I had some questions for M, and when I found out the massive Raibow Framework was done in four months, I was surprised to hear that. I am no where near that. I have a long way to go for that.

Overall, it all went good. I look forward to hear from them but if not, no worries, as I learned few things from this onsite.
