The interview process was structured with multiple rounds. It started with an initial recruiter call, followed by a technical assessment that focused on Kubernetes, infrastructure reliability, and incident handling. The real challenge came in the deep-dive technical interview, where I was asked detailed questions about the Kubernetes control plane. As someone who primarily uses Kubernetes rather than managing its internals, I struggled with questions about how components like etcd, the API server, and controllers work under the hood. The behavioral round was fine, but I didn’t make it past the technical stage. The experience showed me that I need to deepen my understanding beyond just using Kubernetes.

overall process was smooth and quick, completed 3 technical rounds in a week, and final HR interview on the next week. Interviewer is nice and friendly, patient enough for you to explain your projects
