ChennaiPosted Aug 2025 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

After applying, I went through an assessment phase and then moved into live rounds.

The process started with an online assessment that included two coding tasks, and then I had two separate 30-minute video calls. Each video interview focused on questions tied to basic computer science principles, and I also fielded a set of competency questions that followed a STAR-style structure.

Once I cleared those technical and behavioral screens, the overall process followed a clear “pass-through” pattern: there could be a technical round that matched the team values and mindset, and if I made it through everything, the final step was an HR conversation to wrap up compensation
