Software Engineer at IBM

No Offer – Interviewed in Bangalore (India) – Reviewed Jan 29, 2013

Interview Details – IBM started with an online aptitude test. Questions were very much confusing, and i dint see the point of those.
After that interview process was very smooth. Though they dint gave choice for location. They just choose randomly people on based of written for various locations.
They did gave many offer letters but the package was not up to what other companies offers for same position. Even the don't have much perks as other IT companies of same league

Interview Question – I dont remember the exact question, but they grilled us down in C programming.
You must have deep C knowledge to clear C interview process.
