recently interviewed with IBM for a Software Engineer role. The overall process was professional and well-structured. I applied online and received a response within a week. The interview process included: 1️⃣ Initial HR Screening — A short call discussing my background, interest in IBM, and basic work eligibility. The recruiter was friendly and explained the entire hiring process in clear detail. 2️⃣ Technical Assessment — An online coding test focusing on data structures, algorithms, and a few multiple-choice questions on Java and SQL. The difficulty level was moderate. 3️⃣ Technical Interview — I met with two engineers who asked me to walk through my past projects and solve a problem using clean, optimized logic. They were supportive and gave hints when needed. There was also a brief discussion about system design basics. 4️⃣ Behavioral Interview — STAR-based questions about teamwork, time management, and how I handled challenges in previous projects. The interviewer was respectful and encouraged open communication.
