Candidate-reported interview process

There were two rounds to this interview process. The first was a technical round focusing on domain knowledge, and the second was a managerial round where they got to know me better.

The interview focused on the company's products and my qualifications to help design new ones or improve existing ones. They also talked about the company's market position and growth potential.

It was an application-based process. There were two interview rounds: a technical one and a management one. The technical round was a bit tough, you need to have strong fundamentals and basics to get through it. Also, be very familiar with your resume.
