I applied in-person. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at IBM (Bengaluru) in Jan 2018
Interview
Questions about aspirations and future plans. Questions about knowledge about Tata Elxsi and what they do. Portfolio presentation and a design test. Any one of the project would be selected to go deep and ask technical questions. HR interview was more about culture fit and salary expectations
medium - ask deep on portfolio, go really deep on portfolio, flow, and logic behind. But the interviewers are super nice and patient, so be relaxed. Good luck to all!

Question 1

virtual recorded questions, about 5 behavioral that are quite expected. How do you work in teams, collaboration, empathy, conflict, etc.
