Won't it depend on (1) what the candidate is interviewing for? and (2) what exactly is in the candidate's CV?


BTW, moving this to the job discussions forum.

I will just make the canditate feel comfortable initially, by having a general discussion like -
Tell about yourself (technical introduction, about the company,)
About the project
About the domain

Then i will try to get into some real java stuff..

I will look into the CV and try to understand what the person knows and does not know. Try to understand the current role of the person that he playing in his current assignment. Basically there are no fixed questions. But some times may be we can start with simple questions like questions on OOPS concepts and move on to other areas. Also it depends on responses from the opposite person like my second question will depend on the response to my first question.

It depend on the role like junior, senior, team lead, etc.

In general, cover areas like

-- OO Concepts
-- Language Fundamentals
-- Concurrency Management, Transaction Management,
-- Development Process
-- Best Practices
-- Code Quality

Why specific to software services company?
Anyway it depends the role you are interviewing for and candidate's CV.

I don't know if I would agree with this. I would prefer to get the candidate comfortable with "do you have any questions about the company?", or higher level questions (which doesn't have a wrong answer) like, "tell me a bit about [the candidate's] university, engineering course?".

Very few seem to have seen the word TECHNICAL in my first post.
