Recruitment Stories - Taufiq's Experience at Therap (BD) Ltd.

Taufiq Islam is currently working at Therap (BD) Ltd. as an Associate Software Engineer. He completed his BSc in Computer Science and Engineering from Jahangirnagar University, where he not only focused on academics but also actively engaged in the competitive programming community.

Taufiq has participated in numerous online and onsite contests, with some notable achievements including competing in the ICPC Asia West Final 2023 and reaching the final round of the CodeSamurai Hackathon 2024. Alongside his programming journey, he has gained hands-on experience in web development, particularly with the MERN stack and the Django framework.

He applied for the role at Therap through the company’s online job portal, where the recruitment process involved three major phases:

Phase 1 - Written Test

The first stage tested knowledge in Data Structures and Algorithms, Object-Oriented Programming, Databases, and general knowledge. Candidates had to solve problems on paper, with the flexibility to use any programming language as long as the logic was correct. This test was conducted at Therap’s office premises.

Phase 2 - Technical Viva

In the second round, Taufiq faced a face-to-face technical interview that covered Data Structures and Algorithms, OOP concepts, Database Management, and Operating System fundamentals. This round also took place at the Therap office.

Phase 3 - HR Viva

The final phase was an HR interview, designed to evaluate English communication skills, etiquette, awareness of current affairs, and overall personality. Taufiq was also asked about his family background, academic journey, personal interests, and hobbies.
