He asked to give nonfunctional testing scenarios for a loan application which has UI+ DB then asked to write some SQL queries on joins I felt director round could have been more behavioral focused rather technical . After 2 weeks follow up they rejected me for not meeting expectations of the role . Open Text working model : > I came to know that Dev to QA ratio is 5:1 and working on multiple assignments in parallel is expected as BAU > In each project Dev does unit testing and code is given to QA > QA is responsible to deploy code on tomcat servers and build CICD pipeline and do functional& non functional testing > QA should be skilled in Devops + AWS + Functional/Nonfunctional testing
