I applied through college or university. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at Kyndryl (Prague) in Apr 2025
Interview
First, I had a short check-call with an Indian interviewer who asked basic questions and I shared my experience. After that, I got a rejection, and I honestly didn’t understand what the reason was.
Later, I reached out to the hiring manager on linkedin , as they had already shared my résumé with the team. I asked if they could tell me the reason for the rejection so it would help me improve for future interviews.
He replied that actually I should be scheduled for an interview, and he asked the team to move me to the technical round.
So I had another HR video round and then a technical interview that lasted almost two hours. They asked a lot of questions about protocols, processes, and even 2–3 riddles. It went well.
Then after almost three months of waiting, I finally got the approval. I thought it was a rejection because it was taking so long but actually the manager was on vacation, so the process got delayed
