It was an online interview with three panels, and each panel asked several questions. Some were technical and harder, while others were easier, like asking about your internship experience or your involvement in university activities. There were also questions designed to understand your personality and how you might handle specific situations. Overall, it was a good interview, and the questions were mostly easy to understand and answer.

The interview was conducted via Microsoft Teams. The interviewer asked questions that were not too difficult. The panel was very friendly, and the process went smoothly. The staff provided consistent updates regarding interview scheduling and post-interview communication. Initially, I was not selected, but the company later contacted me to offer the Protege Trainee position. I had to decline because I had already accepted a chambering opportunity.
