Process
I was hired on-campus. The process began with a written test. This was followed by two rounds of technical interviews, and then an HR interview.
The written test covered topics from Computer Science, Mathematics, and Electronics.
In the technical rounds, I was asked about the basics of C, Object-Oriented Programming (OOP), data structures, operating systems, and networking.
The HR round involved general questions, such as why I wanted to join the company.
Questions
Almost all the questions were on expected lines.
