Technical Technical Technical Behavioral Presentation

The hiring process is a bit lengthy, but it's worth it if you get the job. It has 4 rounds. Round 1 is a Hirevue interview. Round 2 is an online test with aptitude and technical questions. Round 3 includes a technical interview and an HR interview. Round 4 is a simulation where you're given a real-life based non-technical problem, like data interpretation, and you have to solve it in front of the panel. I found the last round the toughest because you need to solve it live, which can make you a little panicked, but you can nail it if you stay focused.

  • Can you discuss control systems?
