I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at IBM (Hyderābād) in Dec 2019
Interview
Based on students count they decided Online coding test first for us.. Have to pass atleast 4tests cases to be under safe zone to clear the round and next round is cognitive ability games you should be very fast to get this clear.. Its ok if you are wrong some questions during test but should be fast with accuracy wherever its possible.. Next is psychometric test where you should be represent your managing skill and should be very clear and have a glance how IT companies follows rules and regulations.. Next round is English its a simple test have to be very fast to score maximum.. Note: for these IBM rounds one thing you should follow is you have to be very fast and skip the questions if youre even confuse a little.. This helped me to be in IBM now.. Thank you

Interview questions [1]
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.
