Me postulé a través de una facultad o universidad. El proceso tomó 1 día. Acudí a una entrevista en IBM (Hong Kong) en feb 2010
Entrevista
The test is of group basis. A group of candidates are required to finish a set of questions printed on the paper. The paper covers 3 aspects: Technical, English and Ap. Test. For the technical part, candidate can choose either answer in C++ or Java. I chose Java an the questions mainly focus on OO concepts like what is polymorphism...etc. The English part asked some simple English questions while the Ap. Test is a very demanding one. It requires candidates to finish 30 logical questions within 5 mins.
Applied through the company portal, completed an online coding assessment, followed by a technical interview covering data structures, algorithms, OOP concepts, and project experience. Concluded with an HR discussion about the role, career goals, availability, and compensation expectations.
## IBM Interview Process
The process began with initial resume shortlisting, followed by competitive **DSA and coding rounds** to test core technical concepts. After clearing those, I cleared two comprehensive interviews with the **Hiring Manager/Tech Expert** and **HR**.
Describe the interview process: The process consisted of three rounds: an initial online assessment focusing on data structures and algorithms, followed by two technical video interviews. The technical rounds were intensive, covering system design, live coding, and deep-dive questions into previous project experience and database optimization.
