I applied online. I interviewed at IBM (Boston, MA) in Mar 2017
Interview
Applied online in November and got an email to interview for the program in March. Actual interview was like all the other reviews said it would be like. Two behavioral interviews and a case. The first behavioral was about my resume while the second was more about me giving examples of how my experience fit with their mission and company objectives. The interview went very well. The conversation flowed nicely and I was even told by one of the interviews that she hoped to see me in the program. Was told I would hear back in 2 weeks but after 4 weeks I emailed the person who set up the interview to see when I may be hearing a response and got no reply. Reached out to someone who was in the program and they said it took them 8 weeks to hear back so I waited until 9 weeks after the interview and still with no response I reached out to them again and again got no reply. IBM never even bothered to respond to any of my emails or inform me the status of my candidacy which I consider very unprofessional when this was a final round interview.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at IBM (São Paulo, São Paulo) in Oct 2025
Interview
A entrevista foi dividida em duas etapas e foi tranquila. Porém, na primeira entrevista, a vaga tinha um escopo. Na segunda etapa, a vaga ganhava um escopo totalmente diferente. Com a quebra de expectativa, não senti segurança em continuar o processo seletivo e declinei a continuação.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Foram perguntas técnicas sobre a minha atuação profissional e foram fáceis de responder. Propuseram um teste, mas optei por não realizá-lo, pois desisti de continuar o processo seletivo.
first round: english written test （gre level）
second round: meet with manager of the project, asked about cv and some behavioral question.
third round: meet with manager and partner, self-introduction, talk about a related project i have done before, some behavirol question, doing a presentation
difficult they asked very technical questions and some behavioral. Some if them had nothing to do with the role so it caught me off guard a bit and it was tedious
