Question 1
The interview questions were a mix of leadership principles based questions and a few case questions.
It had 6 rounds- heavily focussed on leadership principles. they really do cross question almost every other example.......... You get multiple interviewers across the organisation. I thought- the questions were repetitive after one point.
