Technical Presentation

The interview experience was good and informative regarding the questions. Basic knowledge is essential to pass. It starts with fundamental gate questions and requires genuine research ideas for success. Professors create a comfortable atmosphere but will challenge you if you deviate from the basics, so be cautious.

Behavioral Technical

The interview process involves a phone interview with one manager, followed by an onsite interview with two bosses. The entire process takes about 3 weeks, and you'll hear back within 3 days after the interview. Initially, I got a rejection letter from HR, but later that afternoon, they called to admit their mistake and offered me the position.
