The interview process consisted of 3 rounds: Technical, Managerial, and HR. Everything went smoothly. They asked basic and project-related questions, OS concepts, and device drivers. Since I had IoT experience, that was covered in the interview.

The interview process started with an offline aptitude test that was MCQ-based. It had three sections: aptitude and logical reasoning, English, and technical. The technical section was the hardest, while aptitude and English were quite easy. The second round was a technical interview where you should brush up on basics. For electronics students, it mainly covered analog, digital, and microprocessors, with many questions on microprocessors and controllers, but questions could come from any subject. It's important to be thorough with your projects too. The final round was an HR interview, and you could be eliminated here, so just be honest. When asked about hobbies, include something technical, like machine learning, as I did. Good luck!

Technical Behavioral
This was a total waste of time. Don't bother applying. They have a written test and then an HR round. Everyone gets weeded out in the HR round, but they make you wait all day until the evening for it. The HR round is very unprofessional, only selecting people they feel like. They'll try to reject everyone after making you wait all day. Super irritating. If they don't want to hire anyone, why make us wait all day without food? Terrible management. They want to leave early, but to keep up appearances, they just make everyone wait around for a long time. Complete waste of time.
