I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Accenture (Bratislava) in Jul 2016
Interview
The interview for a junior developer consists of four steps.
Right after you apply you get a link to an eligo IQ test.
When you pass eligo test, you have a quick chat with a recruiter about your background, your education and previous work experiences.
Then you have a technical interview when they ask you basic programming questions, they can ask you to write some code on a piece of paper.
When you pass all three steps above, you have the project interview (with people who work on a specific project and they find you as a good candidate for that project).

Question 1
They showed me some code and asked me what it does (database connection and sql queries)
Self introduction and projects explanation in detail. More focused on general questions rather than technical side. Very easy to crack. Mine was a virtual interview but the result took almost 4 months.
It was a two round process where 1st round involved technical question and 2nd round mostly managerial round where they test your ability to manage the project and how you handle the situtation
I applied online. I interviewed at Accenture (Manila, Manila) in Jul 2026
Interview
It was automated via a Talegent assessment, including learning agility, critical thinking, emotional intelligence, innovation/creativity, tech-saviness/curiosity, English language skills, and C++.
The test was easy, barring the C++ portion. The test suite was a bit broken at times though and required multiple reloads.
