(Round 2) EPAM Interview Questions for Experienced Java Developer | Java + Spring Boot | 3–6 Years
If you're preparing for the EPAM Java Backend Interview, this video will give you a clear idea of what to expect in Round 2.
In this video, I share my real EPAM interview experience, where the focus was mainly on Microservices, System Design, and backend architecture concepts.
Unlike Round 1 (which was more focused on Java and coding), Round 2 dives deeper into:
Microservices architecture
System design thinking
Design patterns and scalability
Real-world backend decision making
These are the exact questions asked to me during the interview, along with practical explanations that will help you prepare for companies like EPAM and other product-based organizations.
