I had a preliminary technical interview where I was asked about a PFD and some pump curves. Then there was an assessment day that was more about team building and communication skills than technical aspects.

First, there was a technical and aptitude test. After they shortlisted candidates, HR and the General Manager emailed me. I sent them my resume, and then my interview date was set. Later, I had an interview with a panel which included a technical expert, the GM, and HR. They told us the results a few days after.

Behavioral Technical

It was a very hard interview process with multiple rounds. They really check for loyalty and dedication. A stress interview could definitely be part of it. Overall, it was a decent experience, though it can be stressful for some. The HR team is supportive, but the whole experience really depends on the specific team you're applying to, as the finance team is quite different from the branding team, for instance.
