I applied online. I interviewed at IBM (Bengaluru) in Feb 2025
Interview
They asked about python as a dev replacement in a devops interview, which is not standard.the process is divided in 3-4 rounds depending on post. But very formal and it had a hackerank test before actual interview on Backend coding.
I applied for this position through campus selection, which had three rounds: a coding round, a technical interview, and an HR interview. The interview experience was really great, and there was no need to feel tense about the questions—they asked only what was mentioned in the job description provided beforehand.
The interview started with a basic introduction about myself, followed by a question about my preferred programming language, to which I replied, "Python." They directly asked about OOP concepts and continued with questions based on my responses. If I could answer well, they would dive deeper into the topic. The interview was conducted online and had a very friendly atmosphere.
