Had a good experience with the interview process. The panel was very knowledgeable and accommodating, which gave me enough time to clearly explain my points and background. They asked a lot of code and scenario-based questions that were a bit more challenging than average. The panel made sure to offer feedback afterward, which was helpful.

Behavioral Technical

I applied online and got a call from the recruiter about two weeks later to schedule a meeting with the Hiring Manager. No typical HR screening questions, just scheduling. Then I moved on to the next round and talked with the Hiring Manager about my career goals and background. The last round was a panel with some of the technical managers where they asked questions about technical situations like 'what would you do when....' and went deep into specific areas of my technical background. Knowing about the company and having solid reasons for wanting to join Informatica is crucial.
