I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at IBM in Dec 2016
Interview
one phone interview. The interviewer is the project manager from the department I applied for . He is nice .The questions he asked are very easy , but my english is not fluent . Sometimes I know the answer but cannot speak it out fluently . I guess that is the reason I failed the interview

Applied through the company portal, completed an online coding assessment, followed by a technical interview covering data structures, algorithms, OOP concepts, and project experience. Concluded with an HR discussion about the role, career goals, availability, and compensation expectations.
## IBM Interview Process
The process began with initial resume shortlisting, followed by competitive **DSA and coding rounds** to test core technical concepts. After clearing those, I cleared two comprehensive interviews with the **Hiring Manager/Tech Expert** and **HR**.
Describe the interview process: The process consisted of three rounds: an initial online assessment focusing on data structures and algorithms, followed by two technical video interviews. The technical rounds were intensive, covering system design, live coding, and deep-dive questions into previous project experience and database optimization.
