First, there was a phone screen interview, followed by a hiring manager phone call. Then, a team interview with 4-6 people happened. After that, we figured out the best position that fits, and then I got an offer. The whole process took 4 weeks from the first interview to the offer.

Technical Coding
I got a call for an interview for the All India Interview Drive. The interview was in two parts: first a written test, then a technical interview. It was about 40 minutes long and had around 20-30 questions in total. The technical questions were related to the written test material. You should prepare topics like SOM, Material Science, Machine design, and DOM, with a preference for Sub-sea and Pressure vessel domain knowledge.
