Dell Technologies Software Engineer interview questions

Firstly, there was a pen and paper test with 2 coding questions and 10 mcqs which were technical + aptitude questions. After that students who got selected were divided into a team of 4 each. 5 topics were given out of which each team had to select one and make a working project on that. A week time was given to think about the project and on one day you have to build the whole project (hackathon). People from the company were monitoring us and each team was assigned a mentor from Dell. If you couldn't complete your project on that day, you can finish it later as well. The next day you have to give a presentation of your project and tell your contribution. In that presentation they didn't ask any technical questions, how did you do that, etc. nothing. After that they started calling some people from each team, and those who weren't called were eliminated( no one knew what was the basis of elimination.. our speaking skills for a technical job? ) 24 people out of 84 gave the HR interview (still there was no technical interview). At the end, they selected 14 people and students were rejected in the HR round as well. The whole process was very time consuming and according to majority of students they didn't check any of our technical skills. Students were extremely disappointed with the selection.. anyone who spoke better than the other or took the credit of someone else got selected. Didn't expect this from a company like Dell where you randomly select students for the job and disappoint the other students. No one could analyze what went wrong. Also during our presentation as majority of students had HP laptops, they did comment on that as well that it's old technology, why are you using that. Being a part of such a big company, such comments are not expected. It was an overall a very bad experience, a lot of time and energy was wasted.
