Process

The hiring process was smooth, while the interview process was a bit rocky.

I was invited for the technical interview and made to wait for 20 minutes. The technical interviewer finished the interview. I was then made to wait for 2 hours to be informed that the managerial round of interview would not happen the same day.

I had to travel to the IBM office a couple of weeks later, and the interviewer was rude as he was asked to take this interview all of a sudden and he didn't have time for me. The interview finished with no salary negotiation.

The offer letter was sent by courier within a week. The HRs were well-behaved and responded to all queries.

Questions

All straightforward questions were asked in the technical round.

The managerial round consisted of open-ended questions, and the interviewer showed a lack of interest.
