Process

I applied online. The process took two months.

It was a long but fun process where you get to learn the company values and to see if you fit in the company as a person and engineer. The fact that they measure your problem-solving skills instead of your technology knowledge is great because you get to prove your potential.

Questions

There were questions which required analytical thinking, logic, and graph interpretation. Soft skills were tested in the face-to-face online interviews with different HR and engineering people.
