Behavioral Technical

I interviewed for a TPRM Role and went through three rounds. The first round was a walkthrough of my current role and why I wanted to switch jobs. The second round focused on why I wanted to join EXL and what my experience in TPRM entailed. The interviewer in this round was quite rude and seemed distracted. The third round was with the Director of their TPRM Process. This interviewer was also very rude, attacking basic questions I had about night shifts and timings. They stated that shifts have no fixed times, may require extensions without extra pay, and that there's no work-life balance, with expectations higher than the pay.

It started with an online aptitude test, followed by two interview rounds. These interviews covered puzzles, guesstimates, questions about past projects, and some HR-related inquiries. The puzzles were moderately challenging and required some practice, especially for the guesstimates.
