Technical Presentation Behavioral Group

This was a fair and very professional interview process. The first part was a technical interview that felt good. There was a nice presentation about the company, and I had an interesting conversation about robots. The second half of the interview focused on attitude. There was a panel of four people involved in the process.

Technical Coding Behavioral

The interview was a walk-in at Fanuc India in Bangalore. First, there was a screening, a multiple-choice questionnaire, which I passed. Then, a written round where the manager presented an SQL scenario, and I had to write the solution, which I also passed. The next round was coding, where I had to develop a Web/Windows Form application with logic and validations. After these initial rounds, HR said they would contact me. A subsequent round was scheduled on a weekday, focusing on a high-level discussion about my experience and how I'd fit into their work environment. I cleared this round and was told I'd proceed to the GM and head HR round. The final round was also on a weekday. During this round, I was asked many personal, irrelevant questions. The interviewer asked me to sign a bond, which I refused. Despite my experience, they treated me like a fresher, unprofessionally. After waiting over an hour, the HR informed me I hadn't cleared because I wasn't interested in a long-term contract. I wanted to ask them why I would travel 60km from my office if I wasn't interested, but they gave weak reasons.

  • Regarding my college choice, why did I select one in a different state when options were available in my home state?
