Candidate-reported interview process

I connected with recruiters at job fairs and also applied online. One of the employees reached out to me for an interview. We had a short phone screening, and then I got the offer.

It was a two round phone interview, each lasting about 40 minutes. They asked technical questions. You should be ready for technical questions. Experience with Ansys software, like apdl, fluent, etc. is beneficial.

Got an email from HR the day after I applied and scheduled an HR interview for next week. The day after that, I had a technical phone interview with product managers where they asked about my resume experience. The next day, I got invited for a phone interview with other test engineers in the group. This round was an hour long and pretty intense. I felt it went well, and the interviewers were really nice and polite. Two weeks later, HR emailed to say they were moving on with other candidates.
