MumbaiPosted May 2026 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

After applying, I went through a fairly structured three-round flow: first an online aptitude test, then an HR interview, and finally an interview with a senior person.

The early stage felt like a standard filter, but once I got to the HR and senior rounds, it became more clearly about how I thought and how I handled uncertainty.

In the later interviews, I was asked a mix of intro and valuation-style questions. Salary expectation came up, and I also had to do guesstimates, alongside getting into my background and motivations. Overall it felt difficult going in, and I remember leaving with the sense that I’d covered the kinds of questions they were targeting, but I didn’t end up getting an offer.
