Process

Applied through referral. Two rounds of interview.

First round was with the hiring manager. He asked questions from my resume. He also asked some behavioral questions.

The second round was with the team lead. It was more technical. He asked some basic questions from Java and some questions from my academic projects.

After a few days, I was told that they would move to the next step in the hiring process. I was then asked to take an IPAT test. I was given an offer in two weeks.
