The Dell interview process was held through a hackathon.

The problems we were trying to solve were mostly social and real-life business problems faced by Dell. All problems were to be solved using Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, etc. All teams had to create a product that solved the problem.

During the hackathon, we were judged by Dell committee members who had prior experience in these areas and guided us. After the hackathon, we had to present our product to the Dell team. This presentation took about 10 minutes, during which they judged us on teamwork, extreme pair programming, and other factors.

After judging a few teams, the committee shortlisted candidates from the presentations for the behavioral interview. In this interview, candidates were judged on soft skills and culture fit to the company.
