The interview process

Described in candidates’ own words.

Went through 3 rounds, first meeting the team lead and then the technical round. Interview was quite structured and fun, but it was also tough. I didn’t manage to get into the final round.Candidate-reported process
The interview process was quite fast, there were 4 rounds of interview in total within 4 weeks. Nothing special about the interview process or the questions. Since this role is serving mostly e-commerce client, just make sure you understand how e-commerce works.Candidate-reported process
For the behavioral interviews, practice with specific situations where you showed leadership, problem solving, and handling ambiguity. Prepare your answers with what you did and the impact it had. Try to practice at least three situations so you are well prepared.Candidate-reported process
