I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at IBM (Washington, DC) in Oct 2021
Interview
Three hackerrank questions which then led to a behavioral interview which asked basic questions mostly about team work and presenting, then a technical interview which involved going through your resume and answering questions regarding your work background and what you worked on.
This entire process took around a month. A day after my technical interview, I was contacted by my recruited who informed me the job had been moved and I'd have to relocate if I did get an offer. There was no relocation package and I'd only be working with a sign on bonus to do this, so I declined to go forward with the position at this point.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Have you ever worked on a team?
Have you ever made a pitch or did a presentation when something went wrong?
How would you mitigate something going wrong in a presentation?
If your project stopped working the night before it was about to be pitched to a client, what would be the steps you took to fix it?
What is a linked list and what's a main drawback of them?
Is there any way you could have improved one of your previous projects?
Do you have any questions for me?
A recruiter reached out to me about scheduling some time to speak. They just scheduled a time without even confirming my availability first. Thought it would be an initial phone screen, but was a technical interview with someone different than I was emailing. The lack of communication and information was disappointing
I first received an online language test. Then got invited for an offline coding round. It was a fairly average-level question with 7-8 test cases on the HackerRank platform. People who passed even 3-4 test cases got selected for the next round.
