I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at IBM
Interview
On-campus interviews for placements comprising of following rounds:
1. Puzzle based round
2. Psychometric round including behavorial questions. They had to be answered very carefully. Most students at my campus were eliminated here.
3. English language ability round (grammar and diction)
4. Coding round: Average level
5. Interviews
I did the interview at the IBM company. It was a very simple one-to-one interview. The interviewer asked about basics questions on my projects and programmes. She also helped me understand on where I went wrong and areas to improve.
A recruiter reached out to me about scheduling some time to speak. They just scheduled a time without even confirming my availability first. Thought it would be an initial phone screen, but was a technical interview with someone different than I was emailing. The lack of communication and information was disappointing
I first received an online language test. Then got invited for an offline coding round. It was a fairly average-level question with 7-8 test cases on the HackerRank platform. People who passed even 3-4 test cases got selected for the next round.
