Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How do you intend to make an impact on the organization that already has well established products and services portfolio?
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Dell Technologies (San Jose, CA) in Jan 2012
Interview
The interview process is very disciplined and sound. There are usually 5 to 7 people to interview and if you are interviewing in Silicon Valley you need to expect more questions on the technical fronts.
