Applied online through the IBM careers portal and received an interview invitation about two weeks later. The process had one technical interview on Microsoft Teams with two engineers. They asked C++ fundamentals, multithreading concepts, and some behavioral questions. The interview lasted around 45 minutes. Interviewers were friendly and focused on practical experience rather than pure theory. No coding on a shared editor, mostly verbal technical discussion. Received a rejection email about one week later.

## IBM Interview Process
The process began with initial resume shortlisting, followed by competitive **DSA and coding rounds** to test core technical concepts. After clearing those, I cleared two comprehensive interviews with the **Hiring Manager/Tech Expert** and **HR**.
Describe the interview process: The process consisted of three rounds: an initial online assessment focusing on data structures and algorithms, followed by two technical video interviews. The technical rounds were intensive, covering system design, live coding, and deep-dive questions into previous project experience and database optimization.
