HR round followed by 5x technical 1:1 interviews followed by final VP interview. Technical interviews consisted of presentation of past work followed by Q&A. Main advice would be to brush up on fundamentals of your research work as well as broader application.

The process is long and time consuming: 1. HR Screening call 2. Line "hiring" managers - they were not sure if they are interviewing for their teams or for which ones. 3. Local head 4. International head -some HR follow-up exchanges in between. All to learn that due to economic situation there's a hiring freeze. All the people and interactions were nice, though the line managers were totally caught off-guard by the questions about their leadership and overall working culture.

I applied through their website. 1st round HR: 30-40 min session questions about motivation, behaviour, experience. 2nd technical presentation: 1 h session with manager and and other 3 senior process engineer panellist. Questions from our research activities shown in presentation. 3rd round: senior manager 30min session. Deeper Technical questions related to the position. 4th round : it was strange it went to VP directly for 30 min session again. My research presentation and q&a from my work. Later in the end asked me send my research papers and presentation. 5th round: it was with Senior director. 30min no technical questions. Explained the job role and asked if I fit in that role. 2 question is about this role requires lot of team work. How do you fit in this role. . I feel they are very subject questions It's very sad feeling whole process went 2 months. I was intensively preparing for this position. After 5 rounds and VP asked to share my publications and presentation felt it will be positive. Unfortunately they said after 2 weeks the sad news. I received no feedback to understand what went wrong after 5 rounds.
