Other Technical Behavioral
The HR round went well. Following that, there was an accounting test. Typically, companies provide a checklist, but this one had accounting questions in a Word document that was poorly organized. It took a lot of time to type. Some questions weren't clear, like one about bank reconciliation that was confusing. For a company like Directi, I expected better accounting test questions to judge an accountant. After the accounting test, we had an Excel test. It was Excel 2016, and I couldn't use keyboard shortcuts. The interface was hard to navigate. The test was confusing and challenging, but good. I think they could have improved the Excel test too. Questions should be precise and specific, and the interface should match.

Behavioral Case Technical Presentation
So, first a recruiter from Naukri reached out, then the TA team at Directi got in touch. I had an initial chat with the TA Manager about my background, then a phone call with a Sr. Product Manager where we mostly talked about role expectations and my experience. After that, they gave me a case study to design a support function from scratch. Then came the onsite interviews: one with the Flock TA Head, two with Product Managers, two with Tech Leads, and one with the Directi TA Head. These interviews were mainly about my past work. Finally, I had a phone chat with the Head of Product and a video call with the CEO. They were all very professional and knew what they were looking for. I got through all of them, but the pay wasn't right, so I didn't join.

Behavioral Technical Coding
I applied through glassdoor only. The interview process took 3 days. First I got a call from HR who asked me some basic questions related to my education and my resume. Then for the next day I was given a home assignment in which I had to code a webpage from a wireframe in 1 hour and submit it. Finally, I had a Skype interview which was completely technical. The questions were related to my coding assignment as well as the projects that I had mentioned in my resume. Overall it was a great experience as I learned which type of questions could be asked in an Interview for this job role.
