Technical Coding Behavioral
I had a good interview experience at IDC. The process was organized, and the team was professional. I applied online, and the recruiter called me for a phone screen within a week. The recruiter was nice and told me about the role and IDC's culture. We talked about my background, skills, and experience for the job. It was a good start with clear expectations. Then, there was a technical interview with coding questions about [specific technology, e.g., Python, algorithms, data structures, etc.] and some problem-solving. The interviewer was patient and helped when needed. The questions were okay hard but fair, checking problem-solving and coding skills.
