First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at IIT.
Fellowship
The interview was generally pleasant and friendly. I was asked to prepare a presentation about myself and my background, and then they asked me some questions related to my background, the projects I've completed, and my skills.
- Could you share details about your background and research interests?
Project Developer
I went through two rounds: a technical discussion and a final discussion. The technical discussion involved questions about C++ concepts and some coding tasks, as the role is in embedded systems.
- Can you explain pointers?
- What are the basic concepts you know?
- Can you write some basic programs?
Assistant Professor
Applied online and received a call letter. Then had a presentation, followed by a faculty interaction, a departmental interview, and finally a panel interview. After that, I got an offer letter. The police verification was a very tedious process. Then came joining and several other formalities.
- General questions about yourself.
- Questions about your work.
- Discussion on work you have done.
Assistant Project Manager
It was a pretty standard process, they didn't ask much directly but instead did a lot of cross-questioning. The interview panel was quick, and even though our connection dropped once, we continued the interview over chat. It was just one round where they combined everything. In the end, they asked how I'd contribute to the initiative.
- How would you connect a color sensor?
- In what ways would you contribute to this initiative?
