After applying for the job through the portal, I received a Word document ten days later, asking me to answer questions such as "Why you?" and "Why IBM?" as well as providing details about my experience, education, and visa status. I completed the form and sent it back. A few weeks later, I received a phone call asking me to confirm my availability for an on-site interview at IBM’s Mulhuddart campus in Dublin. I confirmed my availability verbally over the phone. Days later, I received an email about an "exploration session," to which I responded, confirming my attendance. On the interview day, I went to the campus, where I found approximately ten other candidates. After a brief introductory session, we were each taken to separate rooms to be interviewed simultaneously by different interviewers. The interview process consisted of two rounds: a managerial round and a technical round. During the managerial round, I was asked behavioral questions such as: "Give me an example of a time when you demonstrated leadership skills." "Tell me about a time when you had a conflict with a colleague and how you resolved it." In the technical round, I was given two straightforward LeetCode problems: Write a function to return the count of odd and even numbers in a given range (start and end). Write a function to find the maximum number of consecutive ones in a binary array. Additionally, I was asked some standard computer science questions about relational databases, version control systems, and object-oriented programming concepts. Overall, the interview went smoothly, and I felt I performed well. However, I received a rejection email two weeks later.

Asked various theoretical questions, mostly focusing on things to do with data. Asked questions about efficiency and how you would ensure it, as well as asking what experience I had with testing
