Technical Behavioral

The interview may sound like a lot, but overall, it is not too bad as everyone is super friendly!! First, you’ll speak with a manager who will explain the job scope and responsibilities. They’ll also ask a few basic questions, such as your career goals. If this goes well, you’ll move on to the technical interview. This round includes four questions—two focused on Java and two on SQL. Next, the PM will assess your technical knowledge through questions and determine if you're a good fit for the role. If they are satisfied, you’ll move forward in the process. The final round the HR will ask you some behavior questions, like how you handle difficult clients, or how would you react if the company asked you to learn a brand new programming language, then followed by a discussion with HR, covering general topics such as bonuses and addressing any questions you may have.

I interviewed on December 11th, 2024, from Malaysia for an onsite role in Singapore. It was a single interview round. They initially said I'd hear back the same day, but then the response was delayed by a week. It's now January 20th, 2025, over a month later, and I still haven't received any updates. I followed up with HR on WhatsApp, and all I was told is that they are in the process of selecting candidates. It's quite disappointing that they don't seem to value interviewers' time or take responsibility for providing feedback or results.

So I started with this external recruiter and then had an interview at the Novi location, even though the job is in Ohio. As a new grad, they asked me about my experience and projects from my resume. They showed me a circuit diagram and asked if I knew the terminology they used and also about AutoCAD electrical. They also told me more about the program and possible rotations, and gave me a short tour.

Confirmed questions1 question
  • Are you familiar with AutoCAD electrical and creating circuit diagrams?
