PunePosted Feb 2023 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I experienced a challenging interview format that combined HR screening with a technical panel-style discussion, focusing on control systems and engineering projects.

HR shortlist + technical interview — HR round first, then a technical round delivered by a small panel.
Technical questions + project fit — control systems and machine-related questions, plus discussion of projects and what field I wanted to work in.
Single combined interview (technical + behavioral) — one round where the interviewer handled technical questions while another covered behavioral topics, lasting about an hour. Outcome: I didn’t receive an offer, and I took away that both control-systems knowledge and project storytelling needed to be sharper.
