Behavioral Technical
Got a call from consultancy People powered solutions and they scheduled an interview in Jan'2024. The first round went well but did not hear back them. Then after a month got a call that regarding second round of interview, that was scheduled in March'2024. After giving my second round, got to know tht I cleared it & was informed by consultancy that will get a call from HR regarding offer or there might be third round. I waited over a month, then got to know that the position is offered to an internal employee. Being super slow in interview process and on top of it not giving proper communication to candidate/ consultant makes the situation mess. Waste of time.

Technical Coding Behavioral
The interview process had 5 rounds in total: first, a Merittrac online test, followed by 3 technical rounds, and finally a managerial round. The Merittrac test had 30 Unix-based objective questions covering Linux, AIX, and Solaris. Since there was no negative marking, I attempted all questions based on my Linux knowledge. Although I had no prior Solaris experience, I was selected. The first technical round was challenging as the interviewer asked about commands with specific attributes for less common uses. I managed to clear it due to my foundational knowledge of LVM, RAID, and Linux networking. The second round was straightforward, with general questions for about 15 minutes. The third round was the longest, focusing on troubleshooting scenarios. After clearing all three technical rounds, I was called for the managerial round the next day. This round involved questions about my current role and my expectations at TIAA. I received a letter of intent to offer shortly after and the official offer letter a week later.

Behavioral Presentation
The interview process was quite straightforward and felt very welcoming. The management and employees seemed to have a strong, established working relationship. The department conducted the interview, asking relevant questions that weren't overly difficult. I also had to present a demo of a project. I ended up getting the job!
