We had the discussion. I told him what objects need to make like entity classes, interfaces, & other classes.
Verdict: Passed

Final Verdict: Got the offer.
Not much happy with compensation. I feel like they have low balled me. But i accepted bcz i have 90 days NP and I wanted to start my career as SE. In my current company, I only wrote few PL SQL scripts 2-3 times and rest time goes in running SQL queries : ) .

Cons: Company's reviews about layoff.
