Hi everyone, I’m currently interviewing with Barclays for an Engineering Lead (VP) role. I recently completed an online HackerEarth assessment, which included: 2 coding questions 8 MCQs Now I’ve been scheduled for a “Face Code” round, which is a 1-hour live coding interview on Microsoft Teams. They’ve also shared a HackerEarth link for this round as well. I wanted to understand from anyone who has gone through a similar process at Barclays or for similar engineering leadership roles: Is this round mainly focused on DSA / problem-solving? Or is it more around Java / Spring Boot / backend coding? Since they are using HackerEarth again, should I primarily prepare for: LeetCode-style coding questions Core Java coding Spring Boot / REST API implementation SQL / debugging / real-world backend scenarios Would really appreciate any insights from anyone who has appeared for this round, especially for Barclays or similar VP / Lead Engineering positions. Thanks in advance!
