Process
I received a call from an IBM Success Partner. The process took one week. The interview was very easy, and there were two rounds:
- The first was a technical round, with questions based on Java basics and Spring.
- The second was an HR + managerial round.

Pros: Some of the smartest people to work side by side with!
Cons: Human Resources is very much out of touch with employee needs. The good news is you don't interact with them much. But almost every interaction with HR inflicts pain. Sadly, most large company cultures these days are like this.
