J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez IBM (Hursley, England) en nov. 2020
Entretien

Assessment Centre combining containing standard group activities like budgeting or an escape room game. The “technical” interview was incredibly light and mostly consisted of an elevator pitch.

## 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.
