20+ curated questions with the same answer shape every time: quick recap, deep dive, pitfalls, and follow-ups. Coverage includes batch fundamentals, job and step structure, chunk processing, item reader writer processor, and more.
Suggested path
Topics follow a teaching order. Each answer ends with a clear Next question control so you can move forward without hunting the list.
Spring Batch interviews test whether you understand batch as a pattern with its own architecture, not just a loop. This module is an elevation arc: it opens with batch fundamentals (why batch, the Job/Step model), then job and step structure, then chunk processing (the core pattern — reader/processor/writer). Item readers/writers/processors and error handling follow at the mechanics tier, then scheduling (Spring's @Scheduled and Quartz) at the applied tier. Partitioning and parallel steps close the advanced tier, then comparisons and scenario-based questions.

Numbers 1–20 follow the order we recommend — click any row to open the full answer, or use the sticky Next link at the bottom of each page to go Q1 → Q20.
Interviewers rarely ask Spring Batch & Scheduling in isolation. These are the modules that most often come up in the same loop.
