I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at IBM (Bengaluru) in Nov 2019
Interview
There are 5 rounds in total. The first one is a gaming test, they are called cognitive ability tests which has 5 types of games in it. Which means we will play 5 games in the first round. The second round is about personality, which asks us to select one option in the given two scenarios. And they will filter us in this round also. Do not think that they do not eliminate in personality round. The third round is Vocabulary. The fourth round is 1 Coding question and 5 choose the correct answers in 30 minutes. The final round is the interview process. Mostly there will be only one round of interview which covers both Technical and HR questions. The interviewer was chill. He asked me about my project and asked me where else I can use it and how can I covince the customer to buy it by telling all its features. Overall its a very good experience.

Question 1
The one thing that they asked me was what technology are u familiar with that IBM uses
The process was okay but the result of the interview took so much time. NO reply to the mails as well. interview was offline and has 3 different rounds. one language round, then coding round and then interview.
First round was a language round that was conducted online. We were asked multiple simple questions in English to test our listening, speaking and reading skills. The next round was a coding assessment round. We were shown two questions of easy-medium level difficulty from the competitive coding website Hacker Rank. The 3rd round was a behavioral assessment round where we were given 5 questions and for each question we were allotted 5 mins to answer before the system automatically submits and goes to the next question. The questions were similar to "Explain about a situation where your leadership allowed for a problem to be solved" etc. The last round was the interview round where they asked both technical and non technical questions. The technical questions that were asked where from the projects we have made that were noted down on our resumes.
