- Technical depth aligned to JD (Java, .NET, data) with production examples.
- Location-specific hubs differ — confirm Pune vs Chennai team before commute plans.
Tip: Barclays competency questions are predictable — prepare STAR stories on integrity, difficult stakeholders, and meeting deadlines in regulated change. See also ATS screening at Indian IT majors and Interview Coach.
