Entretien
Applied the post online and got an response from the Guidewire recruiter quickly within 3 days. A quick phone interview with the HR recruiter. she just ask a general technical questions to ensure your skills set matches to the skill set in the job description. Then she request to write a 90 minutes technical test.
After the test, I though that I am doing fine. At least , I have confidence that I provide the correct answers for 80%.
Three days after the test, I got an phone call from another HR personal from Guidewire saying that she will not pursuit any further of the interview. I ask how I did in the test. She did not answer directly my question but rather she ask me how difficult is the test.

J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. Le processus a pris 2 mois. J'ai passé un entretien chez Guidewire (Bengaluru) en févr. 2026
Entretien
I applied in December through a referral and received a call in February. The process consisted of two in-person technical rounds conducted on the same day at the Bengaluru office.
Round 1:
This round was with a Senior Developer. The task was to implement a card game in Java. It was more like a pair-programming session rather than a DSA or system design round. The interviewer was collaborative and provided guidance when needed. I was able to implement most of the required functionality during the session.
Round 2:
This round focused on my resume, particularly my work experience and projects. There were two interviewers. I was asked to clone one of my projects onto their system and implement a new feature on the spot. In addition, they asked technical questions related to my project implementation and core concepts.
Overall, the process was hands-on and focused more on practical implementation. Expected deep understanding of every concept even for fresher role.
The rejection mail came very late, after 15 days of the interview. Also it was automated one with no clear feedback.
