After being contacted by the recruitment team, I answered basic questions about my experience, technologies, and reasons for seeking a change.

The subsequent steps included two technical rounds, followed by a hiring manager round.

The entire process took less than two weeks and was seamless.

I appreciated how the interviews were scheduled; the hiring team, interviewers, and hiring manager clearly valued my time and mental well-being. They did not keep me waiting for interview results.

More importantly, everyone was very patient in answering all my questions about the role, work culture, the project I might be working on (if selected), and IBM's future business perspective, among other topics.

1. Why do you want to change?

2. Scenario-based questions on technologies and team management.

3. Few programs to write in the language JD is for.

4. Why IBM?

5. Any questions about the role?
