HireSetu's note

One language, learned properly

Four languages are accepted: Java, C#/.NET, C++, Python. You don't need all four. Pick the one you have written the most code in and be able to walk through it for twenty minutes, because the bar is the full build cycle, from taking a requirement through coding and testing to the release. SQL sits under a lot of this work in a bank, so joins and query logic will serve you better than a shallow pass at the big data tools.

Hadoop, Spark, Hive, Kafka and Tableau describe the environments teams work in. Nobody expects a fresher to arrive fluent in them. One project you built end to end and can explain clearly beats a stack of certificates, and knowing what a branch and a pull request are helps before day one, since release work is part of the role.

Five cities, and the roster follows the business

The posting is blunt about two things: location preference is not given, and any shift, including nights and rotational shifts, is part of the deal. This is a global technology group, so a posting in one city can put your working hours on another region's clock. If an offer comes, get the team and business line in writing, because the day-to-day differs sharply between payments, markets and enterprise data work.

The job itself is building and maintaining the internal banking systems that retail, commercial and institutional businesses run on. Code goes through compliance, quality and performance checks before it ships, so releases move at the pace those gates allow. You'll write tests, resolve merge conflicts, document findings and pick up incidents when they land. Changing priorities and loosely defined assignments come with the territory.
