I applied through other source. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Ericsson (Bengaluru) in Nov 2021
Interview
WASTE OF TIME. Got a call from HR, asked my expectation and gave an online screening test. Cleared the online challenge, three technical rounds, hiring manager round and HR culture round. Then HR called me to discuss compensation, agreed for what I asked for initially and they said that they will send the offer immediately. Didn't get any response after that for nearly 2 weeks, no response for my calls or emails. Then they called back and said the budget approval is still in progress. It's been 2 months now, not sure why they wasted so much effort when they are not 'OK' with my expectations.
HR team was lethargic from the beginning but completely ghosting away after successful completion shows their worst attitude of frustrating others.
TLDR; Don't trust until you get the offer.
I interviewed at Ericsson (Cairo, Cairo Governorate)
Interview
First interview was Technical interview that contains questions about your experience and programing questions for your preferred programming languages (Java or python) and other questions related to database and messaging brokers
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Programming language related questions and database
The interview was not very technical. it asked about everything on the resume and it was just a conversation. He even asked whether I had a girlfriend and my hobbies and so on.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Ericsson (Budapest)
Interview
First, you have to do a bunch of online tests.
Multiple choice technical tests, coding test (if relevant), personality tests.
Then you either interview for the position you applied to, or you are thrown in a "pool interview" where multiple managers are interviewing you for multiple positions at the same time.
After the pool interview, I received an offer from one of the managers involved.

Question 1
It was a while ago, but they asked the usual stuff, like what technologies I had worked with, what responsibilities I had at my current position, and what I was looking for in a job.
