  • Be future-ready
  • Deliver impact
  • Coding fundamentals and clear logic
  • Data, cloud or AI basics for newer roles
  • A clear explanation of your own projects

Behavioral questions

  1. Tell me about a time you kept going on something because you believed in why it mattered.

    A good answer covers

    • What the goal was and why it mattered to you or others
    • The setback that could have made you stop
    • What kept you going and what you achieved

  2. Tell me about a time you noticed someone on your team was having a hard time. What did you do?

    A good answer covers

    • What you noticed and how you raised it kindly
    • The practical help you gave, without taking over
    • How it changed things for them and the team

  3. Tell me about something new you taught yourself because you expected to need it.

    A good answer covers

    • Why you saw the need coming
    • How you learned it and how you practised
    • Where you've used it since

  4. Tell me about a result you delivered that someone else could measure.

    A good answer covers

    • The goal and who cared about it
    • What you did to get there
    • The result as a number or a clear before-and-after

Role and technical questions

  1. Explain the difference between an array and a linked list, and when you'd choose each.

    A good answer covers

    • Array: items side by side in memory, fast access by index, costly inserts in the middle
    • Linked list: nodes with pointers, cheap inserts and deletes, slow access by position
    • A use case for each

  2. What is an index in a database, and when can adding one make things slower?

    A good answer covers

    • An index works like a book's index: finding rows without reading the whole table
    • It speeds up reads and filters on the indexed columns
    • It slows down inserts and updates and takes space, so too many hurt

  3. How would you design a simple link-shortening service: what would you store, and how would lookups work?

    A good answer covers

    • Clarifying scale and features, such as custom links or expiry
    • Storing short code to long URL, and how codes are generated without clashes
    • Fast redirects using an index or cache, and counting clicks

  4. What is the difference between Git merge and rebase, and why do teams use pull requests?

    A good answer covers

    • Merge joins histories with a merge commit; rebase replays your commits on top of another branch
    • Why not to rebase shared branches
    • Pull requests for review, tests and a record of changes

  5. What does a REST API do, and what do the common HTTP methods mean?

    A good answer covers

    • An API that exposes resources at URLs and exchanges data, often JSON
    • GET, POST, PUT or PATCH and DELETE, each in a line
    • Status codes such as 200, 201, 400, 404 and 500

  6. Your code passes on your machine but fails in the build pipeline. What do you check?

    A good answer covers

    • Differences in versions, environment variables or missing files
    • Tests that depend on order, time or local data
    • Reading the pipeline log carefully and reproducing it in a clean setup

  7. For experienced candidates: tell me about a time you improved the performance of something in production. How did you measure it?

    A good answer covers

    • The slow part and how users or the business felt it
    • How you found the bottleneck, with the numbers before and after
    • Any trade-off the fix brought

Why LTM (formerly LTIMindtree)? Fit and HR questions

  1. Tell me about yourself and the project you're proudest of.

    A good answer covers

    • Your degree or experience and your strongest skills, briefly
    • The project: the problem, your part and one result
    • Why this role is the right next step

  2. Why LTM, and what do you know about the industries it works in?

    A good answer covers

    • Something specific you've read on its site or in recent news
    • One industry or service line that interests you and why
    • How it fits your skills and plans

  3. What would you like to be working on two years from now?

    A good answer covers

    • A realistic direction, such as a technology, a domain or a bigger role in a team
    • The skills you'll build to get there
    • How this role starts you on that path

Tips

  • The company introduced the brand LTM in 2026, so you may see both names on job posts and emails; either is fine in an interview.
  • Practise coding in timed conditions in one language, and explain your approach before you write code.
  • Prepare a short story for each published value; 'Be future-ready' and 'Deliver impact' suit learning and project stories.
  • Read a recent case study or press release in an industry you like, so 'why us' sounds specific.

Practise it out loud
