The interview process consists of an online test that revolves around concepts of Machine learning and deep learning, some questions from NLP too along with 2 modeling questions.
Once it gets cleared, then the series of interviews start. The first round is mostly a technical round, 2nd one is a combination of technical and business acumen testing. In all the rounds, your resume is the key start from where conversations and questions start.
The HRs are really supportive and good at following up regularly. Also, they make sure that you apply for a post that is most suitable to your resume and skills.

2nd round was more in-depth, with a focus on details about Agent implementations, MCPs, Evaluation and improvement techniques.

The interview process typically begins with resume screening, followed by an initial HR call to discuss background and expectations. This is succeeded by technical assessments or assignments to evaluate role-specific skills. Shortlisted candidates then proceed to one or more rounds of technical or panel interviews, where problem-solving, communication, and cultural fit are assessed. The process concludes with a final discussion, reference checks if required, and offer rollout to the selected candidate.
