Candidate-reported interview process

applied on naukri, Interviewer is very sopportive and had nice exp. there are 3 round. overall experience was good. Thank you HR team to coordinate very well during the process

The process was very fair. Everyone I interacted with was super nice and professional. I always felt comfortable, and they were upfront about everything the whole time. They also made sure we had all the info we needed.

The interview was in 2 rounds, one after the other. Each round had one person on the panel. Round 1 kicked off with some behavioral questions, then a few technical ones, a guesstimate, a probability riddle, 2 cases about fraud prevention, and I finished by asking some questions. Round 2 was tougher. It started with them asking me to talk about a project, then an ML case, a fraud case, a math puzzle, another guesstimate, a question about SQL logic (since I mentioned I'm not great with programming), and more behavioral questions.
