Process
Applied online and received one test.
After the test, I was asked to come to their office for a face-to-face interview.
There were three interviewers, who seemed to be from different departments.
One person's English was very difficult to understand.
They never checked my certificates or transcripts.
Questions
Asked about previous experience and asked a few questions which are not related to your skill set or technologies you know.
