I applied online. I interviewed at IBM (Austin, TX)
Interview
Got an assessment with 2 back-to-back interviews. One was a demo, and the other was a behavioral question. There were some slight curveballs you should be prepared for but overall it was a pleasant, easy experience.

Question 1
When was a time you found an issue before anyone else did, and how did you fix it?
Easy interview. Very friend and understanding interviewers. Asked very interesting questions about life and your mentality to understand you better deeply. Seemed like they were kind of expecting Very thought out responses for all of their questions
The recruiters do not respond to you during the process and you are pretty much left at their mercy. The interviews weren't terrible but I'm sure it can be different for everybody.

I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at IBM (Austin, TX) in Oct 2025
Interview
The interview process was very time-consuming, 5 rounds in total; they took 3 months for me. No proper feedback, direct rejection after giving the best interviews!! Multiple video interviews, assessments, and a very slow Recruiting process. Recruiters unresponsive!!
