I applied through university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at IBM in Oct 2018
Interview
I had to go through 3 rounds of online exam viz.. apti and bussiness communication and at last programming to qualifying for the interview , each round of written exam was elimination round
After a long process 47 students qualified for the interview out of a total of 400. After that the main joke happened during the interview when girls were given more priority and even after a perfect interview i was not get selected
I dont know perhaps they were there for just kidding with us because i was asked only one technical que and that too i answered perfectly and rest of the interview was like nrml talk over leadership skills and project
I was wondering that why i wasnt asked any other que was they were just kidding with me or having their formality because i cleared their written exam
And the main joke happened when the girl who said that her interview was just medium got selected
Were u really kidding with the lives of male student why i was'nt asked any appropriate que
If u really want to increase ratio of girls then why dont u just allow only female students......
This explains me why u are doing so bad in market...........please dont play with others' lives, this is really bad from a company which i really used to admire so much.....

## 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.
