Behavioral

The interview process was super easy and quick. It consisted of two 30-minute interviews back-to-back, one with a senior person and another with a partner. They seemed really interested in learning about my life outside of school, like my hobbies, club activities, part-time jobs, and family stuff. No technical questions were asked.

The interview process had 3 rounds. The first was an aptitude test, which was easy to moderate. The second was a group discussion (GD) that was easy. The third round was an interview that was moderate, though it could depend on the interviewer. My interviewer took about 1.5 hours, which was the longest of all the candidates.
